Project Eliminate

Kiwanis and UNICEF have joined forces to eliminate

maternal and neonatal tetanus. This deadly disease steals

the lives of nearly 60,000 innocent babies and a significant

number of women each year. This disease brings:

Repeated, painful convulsion

Extreme sensitivity to light and touch

Capital district is dedicated to help eliminate this disease

from the Earth. It will take $110 million to immunize future

mothers and babies.

Capital district raised

over $72,000 in 2013-2014 year

for ELMINATE, which saved

Over 40,000 lives.

Our goal for 2014-2015 year is $80,000.

With your hard work and dedication, we can reach this goal!

Governor's Project: KOTIO

Emphasizing one of the core values of Key Club,

inclusiveness, this year's governor's project is KOTIO, which

stands for Key Club Outreach To Include Others. You can

achieve this by:

Volunteer with an organization or event that benefits

individuals with disabilities in one or more events

No fundraising! It should be hands-on!

Ex) Kiwanis Aktion Club, KEEN, Best buddies, Easter Seals,

Miracle League, Special Olympics

Submit "Governor's Project Form," which will be released

soon!

Be recognized at DCON!

Slepukhova!

Hey Key Clubbers of Capital's Division 3A! I would like to

thank you and your Lt. Governor, Kiyoon for welcoming me at

your Divisional Council Meeting on the 13th of June! I had

such a great time with all the activities, and it was an honor to

meet and get to know so many of you. I truly hope that

everybody learned something new they can now take back

to their clubs and got a better understanding of how Key

Club International is structured. I encourage you to take

advantage of all the amazing opportunities this organization

offers, including district wide events like Fall Rally, DCON, and

Key Leader! I look forward to seeing you again throughout

the duration of this year. Always feel free to contact me if you
