As we did with our successful leukemia and lymphoma fundraiser in March (thanks everyone!), we'd love for the Mashable community to get involved and Tweet out the messages below, letting people know that malaria nets are affordable and save lives. Alternatively, you can copy and paste one of these messages into your Facebook status. Note that after clicking "Tweet This", you still get the option to customize the message before posting to Twitter:

Special credit for getting the ball rolling on World Malaria Day's social media efforts goes to Ashton Kutcher, who donated 10,000 nets to the cause after reaching 1 million Twitter followers.
