Healthy Savannah is funding a series of community, faith-based events to help spread awareness and information about Covid-19 and flu vaccines.
One of those events took place on Saturday at Greater Gaines Chapel AME Church, which hosted a back-to-school block party. Community members could come for games, food, school supplies or to receive a Covid-19 vaccine.
Jasmine Williams, the Young People’s Division Director at the church, said that she wanted this event to encourage kids to come to church and be involved in their community.
