Hello Division 20i!I hope you all are having a wonderful end of the year! It has been about a little more than a month since DCON, and I hope no one is still experiencing post DCON syndrome and that you guys are preparing for next year’s DCON! This DCON will be the craziest and most incredible one yet! Since it is in a new location, the price will be a bit more but it will most definitely be worth it! So start fundraising as soon as you can! And remember to end this year with a bang! May is a very busy and exciting month for most of us, with AP and IB testing, so I hope you all are doing well! If anyone has any

WHAT IS THE ELIMINATE PROJECT?This year’s district project is THE ELIMINATE PROJECT. What exactly is this project? The Eliminate Project is a joint project with Kiwanis and UNICEF to internationally terminate MNT.

WHAT IS MNT?In 30 countries around the world, maternal and neonatal tetanus (MNT) can quickly turn the joy of childbirth into tragedy. MNT kills one baby every nine minutes. Its effects are excruciating– tiny newborns suffer repeated, painful convulsions and extreme sensitivity to light and touch. There is little hope of survival. And tetanus kills mothers too.

WHO SUFFERS FROM MNT?MNT is caused when tetanus spores, found in soil everywhere, come into contact with open cuts during childbirth. The disease strikes the poorest of the poor, the geographically hard to reach and those without health care.

WHAT CAN YOU DO TO HELP? Fundraise. Hold car washes, have miracle minute. Raise as much money as you can! Our goal is to raise enough money to eliminate MNT from the face of the earth. It only costs $1.80 to help save a life. That’s less than one cup of coffee, or some froyo. Sacrificing one latte or one pack of gum can save a mother and her new born.
