New Program Supports Local FFA Chapters

NEW YORK (August 12, 2008) – Pfizer Animal Health announced a new program that provides veterinarians and animal health suppliers an opportunity to support their local FFA chapters. For eligible purchases of Pfizer Animal Health vaccines, a donation will be made on the customer’s behalf to the local FFA chapter of his/her choice.


The program’s donations can assist FFA chapters with classroom materials, educational opportunities, travel to the national convention and more. The program also provides veterinarians and suppliers with an opportunity to engage young FFA students in discussions about rewarding careers in animal health.


The offer is valid on purchases of Bovi-Shield GOLD®, CattleMaster® GOLD™, ONE SHOT®, ONE SHOT ULTRA® and ScourGuard® 4K/4KC made from Aug. 1 to Nov. 30, 2008. Producers are encouraged to talk to their veterinarian or animal health supplier about these disease prevention products, and the opportunity to help support FFA students in their communities.


For more information, please contact your local Pfizer Animal Health representative, veterinarian or animal health supplier today.
