📢 Did you know there’s a difference between a Point of Dispensing and a Point of Distribution?

✅ A Point of Dispensing (POD) provides medicine, vaccines, protective equipment, and other medical supplies during a public health emergency.

✅ A Point of Distribution (POD) provides food, water, and other essential supplies after a disaster.

Both are vital in keeping our community safe and supported during emergencies. 💙
