}}Mosquitoes Suck Tour (MST) is a Canadian social enterprise operated and affiliated with various charities.[1] The Tour is an advocacy campaign that raises awareness about malaria in Canadian schools through a performance show. Partners include Spread The Net, Plan Canada,[2] and the Ontario Trillium Foundation.[3]

Operations

Working in collaboration with a number of partners, the MST aims to raise awareness among students about what they can do to help eradicate malaria.[4] To support the Tour, an instructional resource tool was created for magicians by David Peck, Bobby Motta, Joshua Jay, Anthony Lindan, Brian Roberts, Bill Abbott and Jay Sankey.[5]

History

In 2008, David Peck, founder of another Canadian social enterprise, SoChange, came up with the idea of the Mosquitoes Sucks Tour to act as a conduit between students and organizations such as Spread the Net. The MST campaign was launched in 2010 with the support of the Ontario Trillium Foundation.[6] Together with fellow comedian Matthew DiSero, Peck developed a performance show aimed at school-age audiences.[7] The show has also partnered with Humber College, to connect and increase awareness amongst Humber College students, specifically in the International Development program.[8]

On November 10, 2012, the Mosquitoes Suck Tour logo won a Social Good Design Award in Toronto, Ontario at the Gladstone Hotel.[9]
