To commemorate a decade of wedded bliss, Stephen Curry, the esteemed NBA player, and his wife Ayesha embarked on an enchanting adventure to the stunning landscapes of East Africa. Electing to explore the captivating allure of Tanzania, renowned for its captivating natural wonders, they aimed to create indelible memories of their journey.
East Africa is highly sought after by globetrotters due to its immense appeal, and recently, Stephen Curry from the Golden State Warriors was captivated by the allure of Tanzania. This country boasts a rich culture deeply rooted in Swahili customs and traditions, complemented by warm and hospitable locals, delectable cuisine, and unforgettable experiences that leave a lasting impression.
Curry’s connection with Tanzania commenced in 2013, when he embarked on a vacation to the country. Drawn to the allure of Tanzanian villages, especially those nestled near the Serengeti, he delved into their vibrant culture. This immersive experience ignited a strong philanthropic inclination within him.

Malaria posed a significant challenge for these communities as they were plagued by a large population of mosquitoes. Motivated by the dire circumstances faced by families without mosquito nets, Curry felt determined to bring about a change. Upon returning to the United States, he fulfilled his promise by launching the Nothing But Nets initiative in partnership with the United Nations. This program aims to combat malaria in sub-Saharan Africa.
The focus of his endeavor revolved around providing mosquito nets to households, specifically in Tanzania. This region faced a significant danger due to mosquito-borne diseases, especially for children below the age of five. These details are sourced from Beat Malaria.org, which alarmingly reveals that a child under the age of five succumbs to malaria every minute.
