Embracing the spirit of new beginnings, ASQ is pleased to unveil a special offer catering to eligible smokers, vapers, other types of tobacco product users, and those committed to helping others quit tobacco.
Beginning Feb 1, 2024, participants who sign up for the program can embark on their journey to quit smoking and by completing a planning call with our supportive Quit Coaches fluent in Cantonese, Mandarin, Korean, and Vietnamese. Upon completion, eligible smokers, vapers, and proxies will receive an exclusive $20 Gift Card as a token of encouragement.
“The Lunar New Year signifies renewal and growth, and ASQ is thrilled to provide a unique incentive to support those striving to quit smoking. While complimentary nicotine patches are offered exclusively for smokers, the $20 Gift Card is extended to eligible smokers, proxies, and vapers as a tangible acknowledgment of their commitment to health,” said Dr. Shu-Hong Zhu, Professor of Family Medicine and Public Health at the University of California, San Diego.
Available for a limited time or while supplies last, the $20 Gift Card serves as an extra motivator to kick-start participants’ quit journey. Combined with the provision of free nicotine patches, ASQ aims to facilitate a smoother and more supportive process for those taking steps toward a smoke-free life.
The Year of the Dragon symbolizes strength and transformation, presenting an ideal moment for individuals to embrace positive changes. ASQ encourages everyone to seize this unique opportunity for a healthier start in the Year of the Dragon.
