Join the Vaccine Partner Program
Thursday, November 18, 2021 by Tai Moses
Local nonprofits and faith-based organizations are invited to apply for Travis County’s Vaccine Partner Program, which aims to “provide Covid-19 vaccines in familiar spaces with familiar faces.” The program offers financial support for community organizations hosting vaccine events in communities that have lower vaccine rates, especially among adults. Approved partners will plan and host vaccination events. “They can earn $50 per person given a first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine at their event. A group can receive a total of $5,000. The Travis County Vaccine Collaborative would provide vaccines, supplies and clinical staff.” Find more info and eligibility requirements here and apply here.
