Healthy Acadia Offers Incentive for COVID-19 Vaccination

Have you been vaccinated against COVID-19? Healthy Acadia wants to thank you for helping to keep our communities safer. Through an initiative funded by the Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) COVID-19 Vaccine Equity Program, the nonprofit community health organization invites individuals ages 5 years and older who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 and reside in Hancock or Washington County to enter for a chance to win a $50 gift card to a local business of the winner’s choice. In line with Healthy Acadia’s mission, gift cards cannot be issued for businesses that exclusively sell products that contain alcohol, tobacco, and/or maijuana. One gift card per county will be awarded each month to eligible individuals who enter to win.

The monthly drawing will run through June 2022. Any resident of Hancock or Washington County who has been vaccinated against COVID-19 is eligible to participate. Proof of vaccination is required.

To enter, go to bit.ly/cv19-vax-me. 

Healthy Acadia is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that engages in a broad range of initiatives to build healthier communities and make it easier for people to lead healthy lives across Washington and Hancock counties, Maine. Learn more at www.healthyacadia.org.
