Buy-a-Net is pleased to announce its participation at the Queen’s University “Health & Human Rights Conference” October 1st, 2011. “We are very happy to be part of this award winning conference,” said Dr. Soni Pancham, Board Director. “The conference theme of Maternal and Child Health resonates with the Buy-a-Net campaign, recognizing that women and children are most vulnerable to leading killer diseases, especially malaria. Women are a precious resource, and children are the future; both populations must be protected.” Dr. Pancham and Debra Lefebvre (Founder of Buy-a-Net), will co-present, with special remarks by Youth Ambassador, Marie-Michelle Jobin.
