Goodbye Malaria

10/05/2026

In malaria elimination, mothers matter. A lot.

Because malaria doesn’t just attack health systems. It creeps into homes. It threatens pregnancies. It steals school days. It keeps children from growing, playing, learning and becoming everything they are meant to be.

At Goodbye Malaria, we believe every child deserves to sleep safely, wake up healthy and grow up with a future wide open.

And today, we celebrate the helping make that possible, with love, grit, instinct and heart.
Here’s to the moms.
The everyday protectors.
The ones who carry the care and courage. 
The reason so many children get another bright, beautiful tomorrow.
Happy Mother’s Day from Goodbye Malaria. 💛

The world is asking malaria programmes to do more with less.
But doing more with less cannot mean expecting communities to carry the cost of retreat.
It means using resources more intelligently.
✅ Protecting what works.
✅ Reducing waste.
✅ Strengthening systems.
And investing in the partnerships, data and local leadership that deliver measurable impact.
This Day, we are choosing urgency.
Focus - not fragmentation.
Action - not delay.
Because every missed opportunity has a human cost.
Now we can. Now we must.

Today is .
And from Maputo, the message is clear:
Now we can. Now we must.
We have the tools.
We have the partnerships.
We have the evidence.
We have African leadership driving solutions that work.
But malaria will not end because the world hopes it will.
It will end because we choose urgency over delay. Action over intention. Partnership over silos.
This week, leaders, implementers, innovators, funders, private sector partners and country teams have gathered in Mozambique to ask a simple but defining question:
What must we do now to move from progress to elimination?
The answer starts here.
African-led. Regionally connected. Built for impact.
Now we can. Now we must.

What a week. ❤️🇲🇿
We recently had the absolute joy of hosting a very special group of Nandocas from in Mozambique, and what a fun, meaningful, heart-filling few days it was.
From stepping inside the insectary, to visiting the chilli farm (Maxamba) where the Goodbye Malaria story first began, born out of the need to protect the farmers growing Nando’s chilli, to spending time in the communities where our teams work every day, this trip was full of connection, learning and unforgettable moments.
One of the most special parts was visiting the home of one of our spray operators, where the group met her and her children and saw the human side of this work up close. The kind of moment that stays with you.
We also saw the realities communities continue to face. We witnessed the devastation caused by the floods earlier this year, and even experienced more flooding ourselves while in Maputo. It was a powerful reminder of why resilient health systems, strong communities and sustained support matter so much.
But alongside all of that, there was also so much joy.
So much laughter.
So much curiosity.
So much heart.
Our UK visitors got to experience the magic of Mozambique; its beauty, its energy, its colour, and the incredible warmth of its people. And yes, there was plenty of fun along the way too.
This group is especially close to our hearts because they continue to go above and beyond for Goodbye Malaria. Through Nando’s Fighting Malaria in the UK, staff have raised funds through campaigns, events and creative fundraising initiatives, all helping support the Global Fund-backed MOSASWA Regional Grant.
To our UK Nandocas: thank you for showing up with such open hearts, for backing this work, for bringing the energy, and for reminding us that purpose and fun can absolutely travel together.
Mozambique, you were magic ♥️

A malaria-free future is also a more equal one.

This Human Rights Day 🇿🇦, we reflect on the simple but urgent truth: access to health and protection is a human right.

Ending malaria means more children in school, more parents at work, more thriving communities living with dignity, safety and hope.

That is the future we are working towards.
One life, one home, one community at a time.

Southern Mozambique is flooded - and our hearts are with everyone who has been affected over these past few weeks, from our colleagues to the communities we protect.

Right now, parts of Maputo province have been severely affected, with thousands of people needing urgent assistance. With key routes being cut off, getting help to the right places has become a challenge in itself.

Our teams have mobilised vehicles from our fleet to support emergency response, helping transport medicines and consumables, assist with evacuations, and support rescue teams where they’re needed most.

And while the floodwaters will eventually recede, they leave behind something that doesn’t just “go away” on its own: stagnant water - perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes, and a real risk factor for malaria transmission.

We’re monitoring closely, supporting the response, and staying ready to protect communities in the weeks that follow, because as we know, recovery isn’t just rebuilding roads… it’s preventing the next health crisis too.
