The 19th EFVV Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held from the 19th to the 21st of October outside Vienna.  In previous years, our petition supporters have given generously to fund the cost of our meeting room and related expenses, for which we are extremely grateful.  We are proud of our achievements over the last year and have plans to achieve even more in 2018-2019.  We would again be most grateful for donations made by clicking on the ‘Donate’ button on our website: http://www.efvv.eu 

 Achievements in 2017-2018:

·      Made a financial contribution to an Italian freedom of choice demonstration

·      Improved internal and external communication.

·      Write an Open Letter to the WHO and various EU committees, on behalf of all 25 organisations in the EFVV and partners, asking for vaccine safety data and calling for transparency in all committees and a robust reporting system, using the direct wording of the articles approved by the EU in its Resolution on Vaccine Hesitancy.

A number of our supporters have set up recurrent monthly donations.  This is particularly helpful as it enables us to meet everyday running costs such as the hosting of our website, printing of leaflets for demonstrations, travel expenses for our members working at the European Parliament and so on.  Whether one-off or recurrent, small or large, your donations are deeply appreciated.  THANK YOU SO MUCH!
