Urgent: A pop up @YouAreHOPE Foundation fundraiser for an emergency effort to prevent further Malaria deaths in this Nigerian village, with steemitizens on the ground handling the solution with our help.

Hey Again Steemitizens

This desperate and at-risk Nigerian village needs our help and we have steemitizens in the area ready to give it, but they in turn need OUR help to get them set up to serve.

Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a good day or slept well, I've got a pop up mission for our attention here....

Here is the information, but it's quickly written and somewhat doesn't tell the whole story. I've just spent a couple hours talking with @aydayodeji and this is much worse than it looks and much more urgent than it seems.

TAKING A STEP TO CHANGING LIVES — by aydayodeji

Why is this urgent?

This is a high malaria risk area where a baby has already recently died, as monsoon and rain seasons are making this improperly drained village hold water and erode water containment, not massive flooding but massive mosquito death breeding ground.

Our heroic steemitizens on the ground there @tyrex and @aydayodeji are going to get this place cleaned up the old fashioned way, with teenagers and shovels, but they need malaria meds, some tools, and some supplies like sandbags and such. mosquito netting, etc.

Jump on it, pump on it.

200 Steem will buy the supplies, tools, compensate some paid help needed, and cover costs of operating this not-so-small scale emergency clean up work. @YouAreHOPE Foundation has seeded this drive with 50 STEEM to start off and these posts. Post proceeds of course, to the cause.

Thank you!

Yours in Service,
