Nationwide Tuberculosis Fight Since 1904 Seals Fund Drive
A nationwide campaign against tuberculosis began in 1904 with the founding of the National Tuberculosis Association. By today it has about 3,000 state and local affiliates across the United States and territories. The drive relies on education, case finding, rehabilitation, and medical research funded by Christmas Seals. Since 1907, the annual seal sales have raised over 225 million dollars, transforming the disease’s rank from first to seventh in deaths and cutting the death rate by about 85 percent, though nearly 1,000 people still die weekly.
