Imagine! You can provide a bike that can actually save lives. Community Drug Distributors are volunteers who have been trained to identify the symptoms of malaria and dispense the proper medication, as well as educate communities in Africa about the proper use of malaria medication and insecticide treated nets. A bicycle will allow one of these health workers to cover more territory and treat and educate many more people.
