Research & identify options to supply mosquito nets

Status: Finished
Step: 
1

Arrow Web Hospital would like to maintain stock of mosquito netting that can be provided to women in the Kayole-Soweto community with children under the age of 5-years. If the hospital can get an initial supply to keep in stock, the hope is that they would be able to add a line item to the budget to purchase replacements for those that are given out each month.

The hospital presently treats around 200 patients per month. Out of these, approximately 75% are women with children under the age of 5 years. The estimated cost for purchasing a treated mosquito net locally is $5 USD.

For this task, we are looking for ideas about how we can establish an initial stock of mosquito nets at the hospital to disperse. April 25, 2009 is World Malaria Day, so it may also be nice to organize local efforts around this event in support of Arrow Web Hospital's efforts to address this need in their community.
