Goodbye Malaria

Social Objective:

Relate Bracelets supports Goodbye Malaria to contribute towards its malaria prevention and elimination programs in Southern Africa.

Goodbye Malaria is an initiative dedicated to creating innovative solutions for significant problems, aiming to transform how the world views Africa. Co-founded by renowned entrepreneur Robbie Brozin, co-founder of Nando’s, Goodbye Malaria focusses on eliminating malaria through public-private partnerships by uniting the private sector, governments, and the Global Fund to support on-the-ground malaria elimination programs.

Since its inception, Goodbye Malaria has significantly improved community involvement and support for malaria elimination through a variety of targeted strategies and initiatives. These efforts have empowered communities to take an active role in combating malaria and have fostered widespread support for the eradication program.

By working closely with governments and health organisations, Goodbye Malaria has helped strengthen health systems, ensuring they are better equipped to combat malaria and other health issues.

Our Impact:

Malaria is both preventable and treatable, yet, still today, a child dies every 2 minutes in Sub-Saharan Africa from this disease.

Relate Bracelets partnership with Goodbye Malaria seeks to inspire people to join the fight against malaria and spread the word that elimination is possible and attainable.

Together, we can say Tchau Tchau, Adiós, Goodbye to malaria. Support Goodbye Malaria with Relate Bracelets, visit the Goodbye Malaria's online store
