8) Health & Wellbeing Support
I helped clean and
reorganize apartments
free of charge for people
who were struggling
with depression.
To address vaccine hesitancy in our
communities, our team created a
picture book called "Learning About
Vaccines: Hero Helpers" that
explains the science behind how
vaccines work, in a clear and concise
way to spark interest and
conversations in families and
younger children. Our aim was to
combat the increasingly prominent
issue of misinformation around
vaccines by exposing children to this
topic early on and to encourage
adopting health and science literacy.
