Timeline of Against Malaria Foundation

Abstract

This article presents the historical timeline of the Against Malaria Foundation (AMF), a registered charity in the United Kingdom that provides long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs) to populations at high risk of malaria. The timeline begins in 2003 when founder Rob Mather, inspired by a television documentary, starts a fundraising event called “Swim for Terri”. The organization grows, malaria prevention methods evolve, and it builds partnerships with respected institutions. By 2020, AMF has made 91 million nets available, protecting 165 million people and saving an estimated 30 million cases of malaria and 65,000 deaths. – AI-generated abstract.
