With the arrival of the cold season in May, the government of the city of Rio de Janeiro has been busy continuing COVID 19 vaccinations, and rolled out a complementary influenza vaccination campaign. As we have done for the past several years, the community center once again funcioned as a vaccination central for the Julio Otoni community.
Over the month of May, employees of the municipality came to the Center to give influenza shots to the population, making use of our space and relationship with the community to efficiently deliver them. As other health-related campaigns roll out, such as COVID booster campaigns, we will continue to work in partnership with the municipality.
A big thank you to our donors who have helped us support this community in such an integral way, not only providing a safe space for its children, but as a health hotspot for the community. Stay tuned for more updates and photos!
