Dear John,
It has been years since I last sat with a child with Guinea worm disease, and that is a remarkable thing. As of the end of October, only nine provisional cases of Guinea worm disease had been reported in the entire world! And you are part of an inspirational team of partners who have helped make that possible.
But the fight is not over yet. We need your help to put an end to this entirely preventable disease.
Please donate to end Guinea worm disease today, and your gift will be doubled. A generous Carter Center donor is matching all gifts, up to $30,000. |

| Hubeida is a young woman now. She was one of the last children who will ever be infected with Guinea worms. Your gift fights Guinea worm disease with education, parasite-proof drinking straws, and diligent monitoring across several nations in Africa. |

Less than 40 years ago, 3.5 million people annually suffered from this debilitating disease. Daily life was put on hold when vulnerable people found they couldn’t work or feed their families because the pain was too great. Their children suffered with them.
By making a gift today with this special match, you will empower twice as many people with the tools to track down and treat every single case of Guinea worm and stop this disease forever. We’ve come so far, and the end is in sight, but it will take determination from people like you to make sure that we can declare victory soon.
Please help us change the world forever. Make a generous donation today and help bring a permanent end to the suffering caused by Guinea worm.
Sincerely,
Jimmy Carter
Co-Founder and Trustee
The Carter Center
P.S. I can never forget the agony suffered by those whose bodies were riddled with Guinea worms. Nothing would make me happier than to see it stopped forever. Please participate in this special match today. You can help twice as many people at no extra cost to you. |
