CANADA'S INTERNATIONAL
IMMUNIZATION PROCRAM
Canada is an
important partner in
the global effort to
help children in the
developing world
beat the odds against
six deadly, but
preventable, diseases - measles, polio,
tuberculosis, tetanus, whooping cough
and diphtheria.
Through the worldwide initiative,
more than three million young lives
are saved each year. Despite this
encouraging statistic, nearly two
million children a year still die for
lack of immunization. The odds can
be beaten with your help.

which those bcncfitling from it
participate in the work. As a
condition of being selected for a
home, each family must invest a
minimum of 500 hours of "sweat
equity" in the construction of their
home or other Habitat houses. This
reduces the costs, increases pride of
ownership and also creates
opportunities to loam new skills.
Families arc required to pay for
their homes by way of an interest
free mortgage of up to 20 years.
These payments are then relumed
to a revolving fund which is then
used to build more homes for more
qualifying families.
