DEAR K E Y C L U B Since I will be the liaison between the clubs in Division 12, the Rocky Mountain District, and Key Club International Board. This year, my goals are: 1) To reconnect RMD’s Division 12 as far as contact and group activity between clubs by giving each Key Club constant updates with District and International Board,
2) To participate as a division in the Eliminate and Women’s Bean service initiatives so that we can surpass last year fundraising total,
With The Eliminate Project, Kiwanis International and UNICEF have joined forces to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus. Neonatal tetanus kills one baby every nine minutes—nearly 60,000 newborn children every year. A significant number of women also die due to maternal tetanus. The effects of the disease are excruciating—tiny newborns suffer repeated, painful convulsions and extreme sensitivity to light and touch.
For More information please visit: http://keyclub.org/service/TheEliminateProject.aspx
The mission of Women's Bean Project is to change women's lives by providing stepping stones to self-sufficiency through social enterprise. Women's Bean Project employs chronically unemployed and impoverished women through transitional employment and helps them earn the job readiness, interpersonal and life skills to create a new future for themselves, their families, our community and our economy.
