Hello Division 3 South!
I am very sad to say that summer is finally over. Days of binge watching Netflix
shows, going out with friends, and sleeping for hours and hours will now become
days full of homework, study sessions, and more homework. BUT, let us not be sad
but be happy for all opportunities that will come upon this upcoming school
year!
The school year not only means new classes and teachers, but new service
opportunities! It is the best time to rack up your hour logs and serve your
community. Be aware for all the service projects that will come in the future.
To kick of the new school year, on August 23rd, Saturday, Division 3 South will be
holding their August DCM and have their second beach cleanup Santa Monica
Beach. If you were not able to attend Region 7 Beach Clean Up back in July, this
is a great opportunity! Spend a fun day under the sun, while also cleaning up the
coast! Feel free to bring any beach gear, snacks for everyone, and of course, a
friend with you. On August 30th, the division will participate at Run or Dye, Los
Angeles, where we will be setting up, cheering on the runners, and of course,
throwing dye at people. It’s not too late to sign up! Visit the Run or Dye, Los
Angeles page and sign up!
For more future events, be sure to either check out the Division's Facebook page,
Instagram account, or go to your home club's meetings. I am sure the presidents
that serve you will provide you with all the deets.
That is all for now! But before I go, I have a challenge for all of you! The next Key
Club meeting you attend, bring a friend! It is the season for member recruitment
after all! Until next time, Division 3 South!

I joined Key Club my freshmen year of high
school, not knowing what this organization was
truly at first. As I started getting involved with
service events and met inspiring people who
devoted their weekends towards community
service, I desired to take part in this group and
contribute with my effort as well. When I
remember the days we packed rice and
beans for the less fortunate families or the days
when we supported fundraisers that would go
to the Pediatric Trauma Program to prevent
accidental injuries or deaths, I have no regrets
about joining this amazing organization. We all
have a duty to do and as key clubbers, we
make this world a better place. We are a
community of high schoolers who make a
change, and I am proud to be a part of that.

I joined Key Club my freshmen year as a way for
me to start off my high school career. I really
had no idea what this “club” was at first other
than the fact that so many opportunities to
serve my community were being provided. As I
slowly began to attend these service events, I
started to see people so full of life simply
because they were able to help somebody by
using a couple hours of their day. And to that I
think Key Club not only gives you the
opportunities to serve, but also to grow.

YOU JOIN KEY CLUB?
THOUGHTS ON THE SO FAR?
I joined Key Club in the spring of 2012. Eagle
Rock has grades 7-12 so I've been able to
witness key club in action even before
joining. My friend, Kirsean, was president at
the time and always showed me how much
fun he was having, all the friends he's
making, and how dedicated everyone was.
He encouraged me to join as soon as I
became a freshman.
So far, the organization is amazing. From my
experience, everyone is incredible. The
friends I've made, the experiences we've
shared, the roles I've ran for and positions
I've been appointed to serve, the countless
hours I've put in so far, every single detail
and action I've put into this organization
goes without regret. Everything about the
organization makes me feel at home and
welcomed. Key club had helped me grow
as a person, has taught me countless life
lessons, helped me through tough times at
home and school, and overall has just
always been there for me.

PROTECT THE CONNECTION Every nine minutes, a newborn baby dies from tetanus. It is excruciating, and a mother can only watch. The baby’s sensitivity to light, sound and contact prevents even the
comfort of her touch. You can help protect that connection. The worldwide Kiwanis family is joining forces with UNICEF for The Eliminate Project: Kiwanis eliminating maternal
and neonatal tetanus. It’s time to do YOUR part.
SAVE A
BABIES LIFE
OUR GOAL To eliminate MNT, more than 100 million women must be immunized to protect them and their future babies. This comes at a cost of roughly US$240 million. Millions of dollars have already
been committed. But a US$110 million funding gap remains. With The Eliminate Project, our goal is to fill this gap by raising US$110 million by 2015. In fact, Kiwanis will become the world’s
largest single donor in the effort to eliminate MNT. Our work will make a profound and historic impact.
On average, US$1.80 can protect a woman and her future newborns from
this horrific disease. Using this average, we will save or protect more than
61 million women and their future babies. We’ll also pave the way for other improvements to maternal and infant health. After all, there are
times when something as simple as a mother’s touch requires a group effort. The worldwide
Kiwanis family has the power to protect that connection.
TETANUS results when
tetanus spores,
which are in soil
everywhere,
enter the
bloodstream
NEONATAL TETANUS: Infants can be infected soon
after birth. The infection spreads quickly and the infant suffers
intense pain for days until it dies. Because of the pain, mothers
are unable to touch or comfort them.
MATERNAL TETANUS: MNT is easily prevented by
giving women of childbearing age a series of three vaccine
doses, which costs roughly US$1.80. This cost includes the
vaccinations, syringes, safe storage, transportation, and more.
HOW CAN WE HELP? Go to fundraisers for Project Eliminate, donate, and
spread awareness for maternal/neonatal tetanus!
Together we can make a difference. sites.kiwanis.org/Kiwanis/en/theELIMINATEproject/home.aspx
