Rabies causes thousands of deaths every year in over 100
countries. Here are just a few of the ways you can help towards
#ZeroBy30.

Joining together to raise awareness

We may have the tools to eliminate rabies, including high quality dog vaccines, but to achieve the #ZeroBy30 goal we need to raise awareness about this neglected disease. In some parts of the world, such as Europe and North America, rabies is not a constant threat, but it is just as important to raise awareness in these regions as it is in those where the disease is endemic. There are so many ways to get involved, including raising money for a rabies charity, getting hands on with a rabies volunteer trip to another country, or even just talking about rabies. The more people know about this disease, the better chance the world has of eliminating it.

Share and like to spread the word about stopping rabies

Everything step makes a difference. Simply by using social media anyone can start and join in with conversations about rabies elimination. So, go ahead, share and like, and get involved. Why not start by checking out #ZeroBy30 and #RabiesHero?
