Your Flu Shot = 12 Meals to Our Local Food Pantries

Through November 23

“We are very excited to partner with Medicap Pharmacy again this year to help feed Iowans in need. In just two years, their efforts have provided over 140,000 meals to community partners across Food Bank of Iowa’s 55-county service area,” said Dylan Lampe, Senior Manager of Marketing & Communications for Food Bank of Iowa. “Getting a flu shot is common for many Iowans so having the opportunity to help someone in need at the same time is a benefit to everyone!”
"We know the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones from the flu is by being vaccinated and by getting your flu shot at Medicap, we are able to help others in need right in our own community!” says Cheri Schmit, R.Ph., Clinical Director at Medicap Pharmacy.
