DDS vax campaign
April 18, 2016
DISCOUNT Drug Stores (DDS),
in partnership with charity
organisation FreeToBe, is running
a ‘Get a Shot, Give a Chance’
campaign which means that $2
from each shot will contribute to
the vaccination and education of
impoverished children in India.
The campaign aims to see
children in Kolkata and within the
community vaccinated against
serious conditions such as Hepatitis
B, Typhoid and Tetanus.
By supporting this worthwhile
charity, DDS professional services
manager Stephenie Shea said the
program aims to improve the health
and welfare of both Australians and
the Kolkata community in India.
“Last year, thanks to community
participation in the program, we
raised $15,000 that went on to
provide a number of life-saving
vaccines to children in India, and
we hope to reach many more
children with the program this
year,” she said.
DDS has worked on projects with
FreeToBe since 2010.
