Malaria and "When the Night Comes"

The Hoyas Global Initiative and UNICEF-Georgetown collaborated to present the screening of When the Night Comes, a documentary by Bobby Bailey. The three narrators traveled to Uganda and witnessed the suffering that malaria causes - the lives, many of them young, that are taken away, the surviving family members who experience so much loss. Mosquito nets drastically reduce the number of malaria infections, but nets must be provided and distributed to those people who need them. The Hoyas Global Initiative is organizing a charity dodgeball tournament, with funds going towards providing mosquito nets for people in malaria-infected areas. Be on the lookout for info about that event! To learn more about malaria and When the Night Comes, please visit the following links:
