Hello from LtG HQ! Ahh once again we come to that time I prefer to call the end of

everything that consumes time, otherwise known as school. Although

it may be the end of the school year, this year in totality is not over.

Key Clubbers are still out there every day striving to make a difference

in the world no matter how slight it is.

I saw a post that brought light to my eyes just the other day. “A

kid was getting bullied at our school today, he always does simply

because he struggles to speak English properly and stutters quite a bit,

but someone stepped out in front of the oncoming bully and told him,

‘if you were to stutter, would you want this every day?’ the bully

shrugged his shoulders, and walked away. The boy who told him off

was the head of the Panther swim team, one of the most popular kids

in school. That kid GMH” This simple act of kindness exemplifies

everything Key Club stands for, it was later found out that he was also

the treasurer for their local Key Club.

As the year goes on we might also be thinking that there is no

more to continue on to, especially seniors often times come to this

conclusion, but it is simply not true! For all the seniors out there,

Circle K will love to have you as a new member and more

and more colleges are chartering Circle K’s every day!

Continue to serve like I know you can, and DFTBA!

In love and caring service

District Project One baby dies every

9 minutes from neonatal tetanus

On average, health education and a series of three

doses of tetanus vaccine cost $1.80

Kiwanis will help save or protect more than

61 million mothers and their future babies

38 countries remain at high risk for

MNT

160 babies die each day from neonatal

If a baby gets MNT, it will lose its mothers touch

No baby should lose their mothers touch

$1.80 can stop this.

District Project

Like the project

on Facebook!

The Two Dollar Plan:

If each person In the district brings in two dollars, we

will raise a total of $24,600

That is:

13,667 vaccinations

Estimated 13,667 lives saved

For the price of a cup of coffee

Why The Eliminate Project?

The answer to this is, every 9 minutes,

one child or mother dies from What is known as

MNT (Maternal/Neonatal Tetanus). This painful

disease steals the lives of 60,000 babies from

their families. In 30 countries around the world,

MNT takes on a large toll because of deliveries

taking place in unhygienic circumstances and

because no vaccination for the deadly infec-

tion is available. The effects of this infection is

excruciating. Tiny new born babies suffer re-

peated, painful convulsions and extreme sensi-

tivity to light and touch, turning the joy of child-

birth into a tragedy.

What we need to do as key clubbers, is to change this. As

part of the largest student led organizations in the world, we can

ELIMINATE this deadly infection. With just 3 does of a 60 cent

immunization, we can protect mothers who will in turn protect

their future offspring. That’s just $1.80, about the price of a small

coffee from Starbucks, or a small burger. Together with our

Kiwanis counterpart and UNICEF, we can end something that

can be prevented so easily.

Hello Division 74!

It is finally that time of year again: time to turn in books, clean out your locker, and bid the seniors farewell as they take off. With high school winding down, Key Club is just starting up! Look for summer events and activities planned for our Division, and be sure to attend all the DCMs to keep yourselves informed. It is because of your dedication and hard work that your division could be so successful, and you all should be extremely proud. The energy that you all possess is contagious, and it has shaped our lives and communities. I know for a fact that next year is going to be even better! Keep on serving and have a fantastic summer!

CLUB SPOTLIGHT! Harrisburg High School

Not only are they like family to me personally,

this group has fostered the last two Lieutenant

Governors along with raising nearly 1,680 dollars

for the Eliminate Project. The acts of service

committed have always been a personal

inspiration to me, most being led by their valiant

president, Carol Lynch who wouldn't admit it,

but puts her life and soul into making this club

what it is! Congrats to Harrisburg High School,

you truly deserve to be the KCI Club Spotlight,

because you’re just that awesome. :)
