Brittany’s Bulletin Has the year continues, I think about how my time as club editor and proud Randall Raider is almost up…. I sure hope someone is considering being editor next year and ready to step into my shoes. Until then, I am here for anyone with questions about board and DCON. Everyone have a wonderful month and rest of the year. -- Brittany Tu

DCON
The ELIMINATE Project A Major Emphasis Project
UNCEF and the K-family have partnered together to eliminate maternal neonatal tetanus. Thousands of innocent babies and mothers die from tetanus die every year. When these babies have tetanus, they experience painful convulsions and are extremely sensitive to light and touch. Mothers can’t even hold their babies to comfort them because it would cause their babies even more pain. UNICEF and the K-family work together to raise funds to help vaccinate mothers, thereby protecting them and their future babies. It only takes $1.80 to vaccinate a mother, and maternal and neonatal tetanus has been eliminated from 8 countries so far.
Don’t forget to do your part and trick0-or-treat for UNICEF this month. We do many fundraisers for UNICEF throughout the year, and this is our biggest by far. Help a mother and her future babies today!
