Anti-Tobacco campaign


MUMBAI: On the eve of World Cancer Day, Fortis Foundation organised an innovative awareness campaign, Children Against Tobacco for the city's young generation in association with MET Young Explorer. Bollywood Actor Mr. Mimoh Chakravarthy was present at the event to ardently support the campaign held at Nirmal Lifestyle Mall, Mulund, Mumbai. It was an encouraging sight to watch children who turned up in numbers participate in a drawing competition where they depicted what the anti-tobacco campaign meant to them through picturesque visuals..

Children Against Tobacco is aimed at spreading awareness amongst parents, teachers, and decision makers on the adverse effects of consumption of any form of tobacco through young propagators-children. One lac children from over hundred schools across Mumbai pledged their support unanimously for the month long anti-tobacco drive that resulted in a humongous mosaic greeting card mosaic covering an area of 7527 sq. ft. which was displayed at the event. The emphatic message that was conveyed through the event was: 'we want to see a world free of tobacco'
