ello, we are a grade 10 civics class from Merivale High School, located in Ottawa, Ontario. We were recently given a project to choose a cause, and we needed to either raise funds or raise public awareness. We have decided to both and unanimously chose to fight against TB.

As you know this disease can be deadly, but it is curable! People of poorer or less developed nations are still dying of this disease. Tuberculosis is transmitted through person to person contact. It is a standardized procedure to take a TB test at most public services.

We are trying to raise awareness for this very treatable problem. Please feel free to visit our site: tbawareness.com for more details!
