Drug-Free Tennessee Announces World Health Day Activities

Nashville, TN, 2023-Feb-26 — /EPR Network/ — Drug-Free Tennessee will host a community event for World Health Day as well as participate in fitness events in early April, 2022.

 

World Health Day is celebrated annually and each year draws attention to a specific health topic of concern to people all over the world. The date of 7 April marks the anniversary of the founding of the World Health Organization in 1948. This year the theme is “Health for All.”

 

Drug-Free Tennessee will host a fitness fair at the Church of Scientology Nashville during the first week of April, and will also sponsor a 5K run in Franklin, Tennessee. 

 

The Church of Scientology has long supported the Foundation for a Drug-Free World, which has as its mission to educate people about the dangerous effects of drugs so they understand and can make informed choices on the subject. The fitness fair which will take place in the Church of Scientology will help people learn about the disastrous effects of drugs, fitness, and what is happening in the local community. 

 

The general public is invited to attend and organizations requesting booth space should contact info@drugfreetn.org.

 

Rev. Brian Fesler, pastor of the church, said, “You can’t have overall health and wellness with harmful street drugs in your system, and Drug-Free Tennessee is working hard to spread that message around the state.” 

 

This is the seventh year Drug-Free Tennessee (DFT) has worked with the community to celebrate World Health Day.  DFT is a chapter of the Foundation for a Drug-Free World (FDFW) and the Tennessee chapter provides educational materials free of charge to anyone working on drug prevention.
