Salutations!

November is finally over! Man it’s

been a long month but it was such a

charitable month as well. I want to per-

sonally thank everyone who participat-

ed during the miracle minute at the

DCM. Together we raised 76 dollars to-

wards the relief effort for the Philippines.

Give yourself a pat in the back.

Thank you as well for those who

participated in the food drive. Also, I

want to give a shout out to Aurora Au-

thement! She donated 20 dollars to the

miracle minute and gave a lot of items

to the Thanksgiving Basket. Keep up the

great work Aurora!

As December comes and goes, so

does the club officers, including myself.

Which means a new generation of offic-

ers must step forth and become the

new symbol of leadership and guidance

for this club. Elections will come after

Winter Break so start thinking of what

position you wish to run for.

Gingerbread Jamboree

As usual, the Bicentennial

Pavilion at the Murano Hotel

was packed with children

and candy which we could-

n’t eat.

The gingerbread houses

seen there were very fancy. I

have to admit, I’m pretty sure

that some of those kids can

decorate a gingerbread

house much better than I

can.

The area was filled with

Christmas spirit and for those

who couldn’t go this year to

try and make it next year.

THE ELIMINATE PROJECT

What is the Eliminate Project?

This project is a joint project with

Kiwanis and UNICEF to internation-

ally eliminate maternal and neo-

natal tetanus.

What is MNT?

In 30 countries around the

world, maternal and neonatal

tetanus (MNT) can quickly turn

the joy of childhood into a

tragedy. MNT kills one baby

every nine minutes. Its effects

are excruciating– tiny new-

borns suffer repeated, painful

convulsions and extreme sensi-

tivity to light and touch. There

is little hope of survival. And

tetanus kills mothers to.

Who Suffers from MNT?

MNT is caused when tetanus

spores, found in soil everywhere,

comes into contact with open

cuts during childbirth. This disease

strikes poorest of the poor, the ge-

ographically hard to reach and

those without health care.

$1.80 is enough to save a

mother and her newborn’s

life.
