“Our community and their safety and well-being will always be at the forefront of everything we do,” said Somos Unidos Foundation Executive Director Chanel Wiese. “We are so grateful to Western Sky Community Care for their partnership and willingness to work together to create positive outcomes for our state. We hope that this initiative will encourage members of our community to take the next step towards health and safety.”
Fans who do not live in the Albuquerque area can send a photo of their vaccination card to community@https://www.newmexicoutd.com and will receive their tickets via email.
