Protect Your Family

Our family stories put a face to the flu and illustrate why we're so driven in our mission.

Family Stories

The emotional stories of families whose lives have been permanently altered by the flu.

Join To Help

Our organization not only consists of families who have lost a loved one to flu or had a family member suffer serious medical complications as a result of flu, but also healthcare professionals and other advocates committed to flu education and prevention. Anyone is welcome to join our organization!

Inform To Help

Awareness is the first step towards real change. In an effort to help you share the facts about flu with others, we offer educational materials and social media graphics available as free downloadable files, and many can be ordered as hard copy materials for doctors’ offices, healthcare clinics, schools, and other important places within your community.

Give To Help

We work hard to make sure that at least 80% of your donation dollars go directly to program-related expenses. Your tax-deductible donations help us continue our education and advocacy programs in an effort to save lives.

"As a parent and school nurse, I believe in the value of the annual influenza vaccination! I advocate for it since it protects against serious illness, potentially including hospitalization and the possibility of any long-lasting health risks."

- Deb Robarge

Executive Director, Indiana Association of School Nurses
