This spring, hundreds of teams will compete on campuses across the country. Spin throws will fly, glory will be grabbed, and teams will be crowned the Pnock Out Pneumonia Dodgeball Champions!

And every single team will contribute to an all-too-important cause, the fight against childhood pneumonia. This year, 2 million children will die from this treatable, preventable disease. That’s more than HIV/AIDS, malaria, and measles combined! With only $8, we can treat a sick child, and with $20 we can vaccinate a child against the most common strains of the disease.

Money raised by Pnock Out Pneumonia participants will go towards providing children in developing countries with the health services they need to survive this hidden killer.

So lace up. Suit up. Grab your friends, and throw down.

Pnock Out Pneumonia supports World Pneumonia Day, a worldwide effort to bring attention to this treatable, preventable disease. The Best Shot Foundation has helped create a coalition of national and international organizations in the fight against pneumonia. Click here for more information about World Pneumonia Day.
