A. Malaria: A Preventable Killer Stealing Childhoods, join the fight against malaria.

Jumai a 32-year-old mother from Madagali community in Adamawa state Nigeria, knows the cruel face of malaria too well. Not long ago, she had four beautiful children. Today only two remain. Malaria a disease that should never take a child’s life claimed her other two. When boko haram militants attacked her village, she and her family fled with nothing but the clothes on their backs. They now live in an overcrowded INTERNALLY DISPLACED PERSONS CAMP in Yola where poor sanitation and stagnant water have turned the camp into a breeding ground for mosquitos the deadly carriers of malaria. Every year, malaria silently takes the lives of tens of thousands of Nigerians, mostly children under five. In overcrowded communities, IDP camps, and flood-prone rural areas, a simple mosquito bite can mean the difference between life and death. For a mother already battling poverty and displacement, the fear of watching a child die from fever is constant and cruel. And jumai story is not unique. Thousands of mothers in Adamawa and across Nigeria share her pain, watching helplessly as malaria continues to steal the lives of their children.

The REALITY:

Nigeria bears the world`s heaviest malaria burden, accounting for 27% of global cases and 31% of deaths, with over 60 million cases annually, mostly in rural and conflict-affected areas like Borno State (WHO, 2023). In IDP camps, poor sanitation and stagnant water breed mosquitoes, turning a single bite into a death sentence for children under five. Limited access to healthcare and high poverty levels leaves families defenseless against this preventable killer. Over 500,000 Children under 5 die from malaria every year. Nigeria alone accounts for more than half of these deaths. in IDP camps and rural communities, where access to hospitals is limited, the numbers rise even higher. Yet malaria is 100% preventable and treatable with the right tools like insecticide treated mosquito nets, mosquito repellent creams, artemisinin-based combination therapy drugs and health outreaches...

B. HIV - Breaking the Silence, Restoring Dignity

Rose is only 15 years old, she was born with HIV, a gift no child should ever inherit. The virus was passed from her mother at birth, and ever since, rose has carried the burden of HIV& AIDS. But what hurts her the most isn`t the medicine, the hospital visits, or the constant fear of falling sick, it`s the stigma. The whispers in her school, the rejection from friends, the judgement from neighbors. Rose once said quietly the disease is inside my blood, but the way people look at me makes my hearth die every day. Her story is not unique, across Africa millions of children, women and men are fighting not only HIV but also the crushing weight of discrimination. In Nigeria, alone over 1.9 million children are living with HIV. Yet for many, the fear of stigma is more devastating than the diagnosis. Displaced individuals, women, and youth in underserved communities often suffer in silence denied access to testing, treatment, and support.

THE HARD TRUTH ABOUT HIV AND AIDS IN AFRICA:

Africa is home to over 27 million people living with HIV and AIDS, every year, over 1.3 million new infections occur, annual deaths are once again exceeding 1 million, reversing years of progress due to reduced funding, limited access to treatment and the silent killer known as STIGMA. Nigeria has 1.9 million people living with HIV, the second-highest burden globally, with children and women in rural areas hit hardest (UNAIDS, 2023). Many patients, especially in rural areas, walk for hours just to receive life saving retroviral drugs if they are available at all. Behind every number is a face like rose, A LIFE, A DREAM, A FUTURE AT RISK.

WHAT SIM IMPACTING LIVES FOUNDATION IS DOING AND HOW YOU CAN HELP:

SIM IMPACTING LIVES FOUNDATION have partnered with individuals, foundations and organizations like yours to provide free HIV testing and counselling, and linked patients to lifesaving anti-retroviral drugs and HIV care, educate families to reduce mother to child transmission, fight stigma through community engagement and awareness programmes, offer psychological support for children and teenagers like rose.

C. Vaccines Management - Hope in Every Drop

In the heart of rural Nigeria, little Aisha, just 7 years old, lies on a thin mat in her village clinic. Her once bright eyes now dull with fever from measles, a disease that should have been prevented with a simple vaccine. Aisha dreams of becoming a teacher, but like millions of children across Africa, her dreams are under threat from preventable communicable diseases like measles, hepatitis and polio. Every day in countless communities, children like Aisha face the silent war of diseases we know how to stop.

measles continues to kill over 100000 African children every year, robbing them of their futures, more than 100 million Africans live with chronic hepatitis B, many infected in childhood and renewed outbreaks of polio in displaced communities in northeast Nigeria. In Nigeria alone, millions of children remain unimmunized, making them vulnerable to the next outbreak. These are not numbers. They are bright children, innocent lives full of promises, robbed of their health, their schooling and too often their future.

Too many Nigerian children grow up without protection from preventable diseases like measles, hepatitis, and polio. In hard-to-reach communities, vaccine hesitancy, misinformation, and lack of access rob families of safe vaccines and sometimes, their children’s lives.

HOW SIM IMPACTING LIVES FOUNDATION IS MAKING A DIFFERENCE:

SIM IMPACTING LIVES FOUNDATION believes that no child should suffer or die from a disease, we can prevent, that is why we are working tirelessly to change this story. During Nationwide immunization campaigns, we partner with local systems and community volunteers to bring vaccines to the hardest to reach corners of Nigeria. We also educate caregivers to help them to fight myths and misinformation about vaccines through workshops, local radio programs and door to door advocacy. We also support cold chain systems, ensuring that vaccines stay safe and effective even in communities without reliable electricity. We also make sure we reach the forgotten by travelling across rivers, rough terrains and conflict affected regions to deliver hope in the form of a small but powerful vaccine. Every child vaccinated is a life saved, a dream restored and a future secured.

BUT WE CANNOT DO IT ALONE:

The need is urgent, right now, millions of children remain unprotected and at risk. But with your help, we can change their story, just 3000 naira or 1.929 USD can deliver a lifesaving vaccine to a child. That is the cost of one meal in a restaurant, yet it can mean the difference between life and death for a childlike Aisha.

YOUR COMPASSION CAN SAVE A LIFE…….

Imagine the smile on a child, who no longer fears being paralyzed by polio. Imagine the relief of a mother who no longer watches helplessly as measles take her baby`s strength. imagine the future of a child who can finally dream again, because you chose to help. Together we can end the needless suffering caused by preventable diseases.

D. WASH - Because Clean Water is a Right, Not a Luxury

Ahmed is just 13 years old. He lives in an internally displaced persons camp in monguno, Northeast Nigeria, a place already torn apart by conflict. Every morning, while most children his age are getting ready for school, Ahmed steps out with a yellow jerrycan. He walks over a kilometer under the scorching sun to fetch water from a small, muddy pond. This same is shared with goats and cattle. this is not a choice its survival. But the water Ahmed brings home carries a silent killer. Over the years, he has battled cholera, dysentery and typhoid. His body bears scars of sickness, but he is considered lucky. Many children in his camp never make it back from those battles.

THE HARSH REALITY……

Over 70 million Nigerians lack access to clean water, with 150,000 children dying yearly from waterborne diseases like cholera and typhoid (UNICEF, 2023). Over 400,000 people die every year in sub–Saharan Africa from diseases caused by unsafe water, poor sanitation and lack of hygiene. Over 150000 children under 5 die annually in Africa from preventable diarrheal diseases, that’s more than 300 children every single day. For families like Ahmeds clean water is a dream and disease is a daily reality. These numbers are not just statistics. They are real people, real children, real families.

HOW SIM IMPACTING LIVES FOUNDATION IS BRINGING LIFE AND HOPE………
