O-I Glass, Inc. announced that it has gifted $50,000 to the Victory Over COVID-19 Through Vaccination (VProject) through its O-I Charitable Foundation. 
 
As Northwest Ohio prepares to enter Phase 1B for vaccine distribution, the VProject is engaging more than 250 community leaders to ensure vaccine access and information to all populations represented in the area.
 
Through the formation of committees, the VProject coordinates the logistics, education and communications to remove barriers for vaccine distribution. O-I is supporting the VProject in its goal to ensure that more than 70% of the population in Lucas and Wood Counties are vaccinated against COVID-19.
 
“O-I and its foundation are committed to taking an active role in the communities where we live and work,” said Andres Lopez, CEO of O-I Glass, Inc. “The VProject is an important initiative to raise vaccine awareness in Northwest Ohio and promote inoculation. We are proud to kick off fundraising efforts with a gift of $50,000. We look forward to continued collaboration with other community leaders to help move this project forward and support its mission to build knowledge and trust in the vaccine.”
