Help Vaccinate the World
We give thanks for vaccines provided free of charge, for the ability to gather with family and friends with little fear of risking illness, for being able to join once again in person for worship. But we also remember there are many in the world who remain at risk because of COVID-19.
Our Mission & Service partner ACT Alliance reports that out of all the vaccines administered around the world, less than 2% reached Africa and less than 7% reached South America. Many countries in the global South and East will not be able to start a vaccine program until 2022. At this rate, these countries will not reach vaccination goals until 2024.. If ever.
Please consider purchasing vaccine through Gifts with Vision.
Mission & Service is working with UNICEF to make sure vaccines get where they are most needed.
Additionally, the Government of Canada will match your donation dollar for dollar until September 6.
