Vaccinating for Africa Day 2009 
20th Anniversary Appeal

With national vaccination month coming up, participating veterinary surgeries will once again provide pets with discounted vaccinations. VETAID understands the importance of these vaccines, but also the huge impact vaccinations have on vulnerable African communities. That’s why, on 13^th May 2009, VETAID will hold it’s 3^rd annual ‘Vaccinating for Africa’ day.

 

The idea behind the action day is simple. Veterinary practices book in as many boosters as possible on 13^th May, agreeing to donate half the total income from those boosters to VETAID. Posters on display in the surgery let clients know the practice is taking part, and we will provide you with information for anyone who wants to know more.

VETAID has been working with people who depend on animals for their survival for 20 years. Our work ranges from providing training in basic animal health care to running large scale vaccination campaigns to prevent disease.

 

This Europe-wide event which is organised by VETAID along with other members of the Vétérinaires sans Frontières (VSF) network.
