AMF
Against Malaria Foundation
Every net saves lives.
(About)
One of the most cost-effective charities funding long-lasting insecticidal nets.
The Against Malaria Foundation is a small, unusually transparent UK-registered charity (No. 1105319) founded in 2004 by Rob Mather. Its entire programme is the funding of long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs), which are distributed by partner organisations in countries with high malaria burden.
AMF publishes every transaction it makes, in and out, on its website, along with the number of nets distributed at each location, the households they reached, and the results of post-distribution monitoring visits at 6, 12, 18, 24 and 30 months. That level of transactional transparency is unusual in the sector and is one of the reasons the charity evaluator GiveWell has repeatedly named AMF one of its top-recommended charities.
The organisation is deliberately kept very small — its overheads are largely covered by a group of long-standing supporters — so that almost all public donations are used to buy and distribute nets in partnership with national malaria control programmes.
