FLU
FACTS
Influenza, or “the flu,” is a highly contagious viral infection. The flu is often confused with the common cold, but flu symptoms tend to develop quickly and are usually more severe.

HELP US DO MORE
Many people underestimate the seriousness of influenza or have questions about flu vaccination. Sadly, every year in the U.S., upwards of 56,000 people – including 100 children – die from the flu and associated complications, leaving their families and communities shocked and devastated.
Our organization works to educate others about the dangers of influenza and the critical importance of annual flu vaccination for everyone six months and older.
Your tax-deductible donations allow us to continue our education and advocacy programs in an effort to save lives.
