SF Hep B Free

 Open Casting Call for Hep B Awareness Ad Campaign 

- Male and female Chinese, Filipino, Korean, and Vietnamese models wanted -

   

Enthusiastic and passionate female and male Chinese, Filipino, Korean, and Vietnamese models wanted for a hepatitis b awareness advertising campaign that will encourage the public to know their hepatitis B status and to get tested for this vaccine preventable disease. Ages 30 to 65 and a resident of the San Francisco Bay Area preferred. A family is also sought. 

   

Liver cancer is the deadliest cancer in America, and one of the leading causes of deaths for Asian/Pacific Islander Americans. Most liver cancer is caused by the hepatitis B virus. The Hep B Free campaign is ending this deadly disease and it is leading the country as a healthcare reform model. It's success stems from community support and enthusiasm. This ad campaign is part of that community involvement. Based on the successful SF Hep B Free campaign, other counties and cities are starting to replicate its model. They include Los Angeles, Orange County, Santa Clara, Alameda, Long Beach, San Mateo, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC.
