Flu-Free Quad Cities
In 2017, over 8,000 students in 87 elementary schools received free seasonal flu vaccines through Flu-Free QC. This program is completely charitably funded. There is no cost to the school district, school, or family to participate. We rely on the generosity of individuals, organizations, grants and businesses to ensure that every child who has parental consent receives their free flu shot.
