Julie Hamsa is organizing a silent auction for a nonprofit called Nothing But Nets and will auction off signed copies of Beyond the Cayenne Wall.
Nothing But Nets is a foundation started by sports columnist Rick Riley and partnered with the UN, which buys bed nets to prevent the spread of malaria in Africa. Malaria is the leading cause of death of children in Africa, 3000 kids die each day. However, a mere $10 buys a bed net for a family, which can be used for 4 years! Using bed nets cuts malaria transmission 90%! All money raised goes directly to the foundation, so each $10 buys one bed net.
