UNICEF, the only organization of the United Nations dedicated exclusively to children, works with other
United Nations bodies, governments and non-governmental organizations to assist in children’s
needs through community-based services in primary health care, basic education, and safe water and sanitation in more than 150 developing countries.
UNICEF shares the Kiwanis family’s global
commitment to children and has provided its extensive resources and leadership to assist in the
Worldwide Service Project to virtually eliminate Iodine Deficiency Disorder (IDD) from the globe.
What is UNICEF?
Trick-or-treat
Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF has empowered
generations to make lasting change in their global community by collecting donations on
Halloween for UNICEF. Key Club has been trick–
or–treating for UNICEF since 1994, and over the
years has raised nearly $5 million for Iodine
deficiency programs worldwide and HIV and AIDS programs in Kenya and Swaziland.
Key Club has set a goal to raise $1.5 million through Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF for Operation Uruguay! The funds raised will help at-risk Uruguayan children and adolescents who live in
poverty.
Every Club will receive a fundraising kit right after Labor Day that includes Trick-or-
Treat for UNICEF collection boxes, a
campaign kit and poster, a DVD, and
more resources to help you conduct your
campaign. Instead of collecting candy, you can collect change and donations to
raise money for Operation Uruguay. You
can go trick-or-treating in your
neighborhood, in your school, or in your
local areas. You can also host fundraisers
at your school by hosting a competition
amongst classes to see who can
raise the most money for UNICEF and reward the winner with the
most money! Show UNICEF
your service by trick-or-treating
for them on Halloween!
How can you help?
Selena was appointed a
UNICEF Ambassador in
September 2009,
becoming the youngest
UNICEF Ambassador in the
United States. On her first
official field mission for
UNICEF, Selena traveled to
Ghana in West Africa
where she witnessed the
work UNICEF is doing to
help get kids the things
they need to survive and
thrive—like clean water,
food, education and medicine.

Scaring is Caring

Can’t spell scare without care! Does your key
club need help with raising money or coming up
with ideas to do for Halloween? Want to do
something fun and exciting while doing service
to? Well here are some ideas and fundraisers
you can do with your key club for Halloween.
SSppooookkyy FFuunnddrraaiisseerrss
Costume Modeling Show! Host a modeling show near you’re area and
get people to dress up in their scariest costume! Have a competition on who can make the scariest costume and have everyone
participate in the modeling show. This is a great way to spend time with your key club and you can even raise money by selling tickets. Get
scary and walk the runway with your costume!
Trunk or Treat A Trunk or Treat is a Halloween event that your
key club can participate. People gather and park their cars in a large parking lot. They open their trunks, or the backs of their vehicles, and
decorate them. Then they pass out candy from their trunks. The event provides a safe family environment for trick or treaters. You can host a
competition to see who has the most decorate truck and reward the winners with Halloween
prizes. This is event is mostly for toddlers and children, so try not to get to scary with your trucks!
Halloween Screening Get your key club to host a Halloween Screening in which key clubbers can come and watch a killer thriller! Of course you don’t want
the movie to be to scary where they’ll have nightmares, but keep them entertained! This is a
great way to spend time with your key clubbers and have fun!
Haunted Mansion Create a Halloween Mansion with your key clubbers
and get families and kids to attend to get some scare! You can raise money by charging at
the door and while you’re scaring little kids, you can have people sell food or candy to the customers.
This is a great way to raise money and have a little fun while scaring
others. Key Clubbers can dress up and create their own ways to scare!
Fall Festival Your Key Club can host a fall festival for Halloween. It does take a little work, but with teamwork and effort you can do anything! Create
games and activities to do at the festival and sell food like pumpkin pie, caramel
apples, and more. You can even host a carving
pumpkin contest, or fastest pie eater. Incorporate a few service projects too like UNICEF or Trunk-a-Treat. This is a great idea to raise
money and it’s definitely going to be something fun to do!
Sell Sell Sell! Host a bake sale at school and sell goods like ghost cookies, pumpkin
brownies, spooky cupcakes, and more! Get your key clubbers together to help provide the
goods and to help sell! You can also sell treats with some fun Halloween candy. If you need
any key club fundraising products to sell then go to www.keyprofits.com.

Pikachu is Division

we all love how
cheerful and
helpful Pikachu is.
With service and
care, Pikachu will
definitely give
everyone a shock!
Shirts I’ve designed a shirt for Division 14 to represent and here is a quick peek
to of the design. These shirts will be handed out
towards the end of the tear and we will start selling them soon!
Flag Gautier High won the flag design contest with
their “Gotta have Service” slogan and their design. Division 14 will have their flag by DCON and the design will be put up in the
next newsletter so look forward to it!
Hats I found some Pikachu hats that we can all wear at DCON. There are
a limited amount of hats, but we can still make
