The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) is encouraging all Ohio COVID-19 vaccine providers to share information about the Ohio Vax-2-School scholarship drawings with eligible vaccine recipients between the ages of 5 and 25 years.
Ohio Vax-2-School is a public outreach campaign to increase awareness of the availability and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines and provide incentives to younger Ohioans to get a COVID-19 vaccination. The deadlines are quickly approaching for eligible Ohioans to enter Vax-2-School and win one of 150 $10,000 scholarships, or one of five $100,000 grand prize scholarships. Download an Ohio Vax-2-School communications toolkit with ready-to-use social media posts, graphics, newsletter language, and more to help share details with vaccine recipients about how to opt into the drawings. Download and print or share the links to these Vax-2-School flyers available with either a full color background or a white background.
