Sports Illustrated columnist sends message of thanks

 to The People of the United Methodist Church.

NOVEMBER 14TH  marks an historic partnership with

The People of The United Methodist Church, NBA Cares, Sports Illustrated and the UN Foundation with the launch of the Nothing But Nets campaign. 

The Nothing But Nets effort got started when Sports Illustrated columnist Rick Reilly learned about the UN Foundation's efforts to provide bed nets across Africa and decided to get involved. In a column entitled "Nothing But Nets", he made an appeal for anyone who ever played or enjoyed any sport involving nets to donate $10 -- the approximate cost to purchase and distribute an insecticide-treated bed net.  

Please listen to Rick's personal message regarding the cause now close to his heart, and listen to his thanks of The People of The United Methodist Church for remaining committed to this campaign of prevention.

Thank you
