Oops! It's Jun

This is a message from my all time favourite Youtube makeup guru, Michelle Phan. (pronounce as "Fon". She's a Vietnamese American.)

She just hit a huge 1,000,000 subscribers for her channel, which is something great!

Michelle is the highest subscribed female youtuber and also the 1st female to hit the 1 million subscribers mark.

While celebrating her 1 million subscribers success, she never leaves charity behind by calling public's attention to end malaria!

So I'm spreading it to you!

Do you know malaria causes more than 1 million deaths annually?

Malaria is a disease of the blood that is caused by a parasite transmitted from person to person by certain types of mosquitoes. Symptoms of Malaria such as fever, vomiting and other flu like symptoms will appear within 9 to 14 days after a bitten by a mosquito.

Malaria is particular devastating in Africa, where it kills an African child every 30 seconds. Many children who survive an episode of severe Malaria may suffer from learning impairments or brain damage.

Malaria is preventable, however the lack of resources, coupled with a climate very hospitable to the deadliest strain of malaria had made the disease a leading cause of death among the African children.

Malaria is preventable and treatable, by giving families and individuals insecticide- treated bed nets to sleep under, kill mosquitoes where they breed and when they enter houses to feed at night, and making anti malarial drugs.

Its really sad to know that malaria is absolutely preventable by simply using mosquito nets, yet so many of these children were killed by malaria.

So, what are you waiting for?

Donate to Malaria Progress, the special envoy for malaria.

They deliver bed nets to families and help the awareness of public towards malaria.

Or spread the words!! Tell your friends and family, post it on Facebook, twitter, or blog.

Let them know how malaria can harm the world and lives and what can we do for it!!
