"Scott has the drive, discipline, management skill and, most importantly, the creativity to help us realize our aggressive but entirely attainable goal of ending malaria deaths," said Malaria No More Chairman Peter Chernin. "This organization is deeply committed to influencing new, bold thinking and driving real change and Scott is completely motivated by the desire to achieve impact. He is the absolute ideal candidate to lead an outfit as ambitious and entrepreneurial as this one."

Under the stewardship of Mr. Case, Malaria No More has achieved several major milestones in the past six months:

    --  MNM played a pivotal role in shepherding $5 billion for malaria in the
        recent PEPFAR re-authorization bill.
    --  MNM worked with Prime Minister Gordon Brown and President Bush to secure
        a pledge for 100 million bed nets by December 31, 2010 at the July G8
        meeting.
    --  MNM raised $10 million for bed nets and educated 40 million Americans
        about the disease through the second installment of American Idol Gives
        Back.
    --  MNM worked with McKinsey and the Global Fund to add a second round of
        funding (Round 9) in 2008, which will mean hundreds of millions of
        dollars in additional funding for malaria by 2010.
    --  MNM recently secured a high profile, global marketing and fundraising
        partnership with FC Barcelona and American Youth Soccer Organization.
