The CERMES Foundation, in collaboration with the Tema Metro Veterinary Office, marked World Rabies Day 2024 with a week-long rabies awareness and vaccination campaign.

The initiative took place in six public schools across Tema and extended into a house-to-house vaccination drive covering nine communities.

Sponsored by The CERMES Foundation, the drive provided 1,000 free rabies vaccines for pets with the aim of curbing rabies.

From the 24th to 27th of September, over 2,000 pupils from Republic Road School, Akodzo JHS, Mante Din Primary and JHS, Community 8 Number 1, Twedaase JHS, and Archbishop Andoh Roman Catholic Basic School participated in engaging sessions about rabies.
