GREAT AMERICAN SMOKEOUT

November 20

Every year, smokers across the nation take part in the American Cancer Society’s Great American Smokeout® by smoking less or quitting for the day during the third Thursday of November.  The event challenges people to stop using tobacco and raises awareness of the many effective ways to quit for good.

The Health Promotion Team at Villanova University participates in this event every year. We are offering yet another fun and easy alternative for students to get involved!

• Eat a cold turkey sandwich in the dining halls to show your support for fellow students, faculty, and staff who are making an effort to quit smoking “cold turkey”
• Help raise awareness by adding the name of a friend or loved one who has died or is currently struggling with a smoking related illness
• Adopt a smoker and give them moral support for the day
• Trade in your cigarettes for a small prize and a chance to win the raffle prize
