“This mosquito net changed everything.”
In her own words, one of our beneficiaries shares how a simple, treated net made a big difference for her and her child — no more mosquito bites, no more malaria.
At WDI, impact is personal. And every thank you fuels our mission. 💚
At Westfield Development Initiative (WDI), we don’t just show up we listen, we respond, and we educate.
Through open Q&A sessions during our outreach programs, we create safe spaces for people to ask questions, dispel myths, and learn practical ways to prevent malaria.
No confusion. No guesswork. Just real knowledge that protects lives.
If you care about your health and your community, you’re in the right place.
Follow us, share our posts, and tell us in the comments one malaria fact you think everyone should know. 💙
What if I told you that most malaria infections can be prevented… simply by knowing the right information? 👀
That’s why WDI is here. We break down the facts, clear up myths, and teach families how to stay safe in ways that actually make sense.
As May comes to an end, we appreciate everyone who stayed engaged, learned, and took steps to protect their health.
Every small action from prevention to awareness, helps build stronger, healthier communities.
As we celebrate Eid al-Kabir, may this special occasion fill your heart with peace, your home with joy, and your life with countless blessings. 🤍✨
From all of us, we wish you and your loved ones a joyful, peaceful, and blessed Eid al-Kabir.
At Westfield Development Initiative, we fight for every child's right to a healthy future. Today and every day. 💚

Happy Children's Day! 🎉👧🏾👦🏾
Every child deserves to grow up healthy and malaria-free. Children under 5 are among the most vulnerable to severe malaria but with the right knowledge and treatment, we can protect them.
That's why prevention, early diagnosis, and proper treatment are especially important for these groups.
Protecting the most vulnerable among us helps protect our entire community. 🤍🌿

Let's test your malaria awareness 👀
Who do you think is most at risk of severe malaria?
Children under 5 years old and pregnant women are among the most vulnerable to severe malaria and its complications.
One of the biggest challenges we see is delay, people waiting to see if symptoms will go away on their own.
But early testing can make treatment faster, easier, and safer.
Your health is always worth acting on immediately 🌿
Feeling better does not always mean you are fully healed.
Stopping medication halfway can allow the illness to return stronger. Completing your treatment is part of protecting yourself fully.
Take it seriously, your recovery depends on it 🌿
That’s why prevention focuses on mosquito control and personal protection.
Knowing the truth helps us prevent malaria better and avoid unnecessary fear. 💚

We hear this one a lot.
You can’t catch malaria by sharing food, hugging someone, or being close to a person who has it. Malaria doesn’t spread that way.
It is transmitted when an infected female Anopheles mosquito bites a person.
DID YOU KNOW?
That small stagnant water you ignore? It’s a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
Keeping your environment clean protects you and everyone around you.
Snapshots from one of our community visits 💚
Our team went to Lagos Island and we found passion, resilience, and people hungry for health information.
We screened families, distributed treated nets, and provided free malaria drugs to those in need.
