What is Pneumonia?
Pneumonia is a respiratory infection that affects the lungs, resulting in inflammation of the alveoli, the air sacs that make up the bulk of the lungs and help us breathe. Infection causes them to fill with fluid or mucus, limiting the amount of oxygen entering the sacs and making it painful to breathe.
Why We Do This
According to the World Health Organization, the Philippines is one of the 15 countries that together account for 75% of childhood pneumonia cases worldwide.
In Memoriam: Congresswoman Resurreccion Acop, MD
Doctora Acop selflessly served Antipolo as a pediatrician and member of the House of Representatives. As our main partner for Give it a Shot, her support and contributions to the program’s start and success will never be forgotten. We strive to continue the good work she helped initiate. She will always serve as our inspiration for vaccine advocacy.

Summer of 2017
This was our first summer completing the vaccine program in the Antipolo Rizal area. Collaborating with a local pediatrician, we were able to vaccinate 200 children.
