Hello Key Clubbers! My name is Asia Harris and I am a senior at

Cathedral High School in Natchez, Mississippi. It is honor to be serving
as your Lieutenant Governor of Division 15. Outside of Key Club, I am
on the praise dance team at my church, and I am with the music team
at Vacation Bible School. After college, I would love to pursue my dream
of becoming a computer hardware engineer. My goals for my term as
Lieutenant Governor will be renewing Key Clubs that have been inactive,
establishing new Key Clubs within our division, creating better
communication between all the schools in the division, having more
meetings for the club officers, club members, and advisors, creating
new service projects, finding ways to help with the Eliminate Project,
and more ideas to come. If you have any concerns, questions, or
suggestions on anything, feel free to email me at
aharris499@gmail.com . I am looking forward to working with all of you!

5. Motto-Caring-- Our
Way of Life


The Governors Project, this year, is The Eliminate Project. The
Eliminate Project is where Kiwanis International and UNICEF
have joined together to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus.
Neonatal tetanus kills one baby per nine minuteswhich kills
60,000 newborn children each year. Also, an abundant amount of
mothers die from maternal tetanus. Seeing the mothers and the
children suffer from these diseases is very painful and
devastating to see. So, to eliminate the maternal and neonatal
tetanus from the Earth, 129 million mothers and their children
MUST be immunized. This requires vaccines, syringes, safe
storages, transportation, thousands of skilled workers and more.
It will take $110 millionand the dedicated work of UNICEF and
every member of Kiwanis Family.

How Can We Help the Eliminate Project?
There are PLENTY of ways for all of us to help The Eliminate
Project. Here are some suggestions:

Floral Fundraiser- Sell white and blue-tipped carnations for
students and faculty to purchase to raise funds and
awareness
Fun Food Fridays-The weeks end deserves to be
celebrated. Organize a snack cart to deliver popcorn,
cookies, or other tasty treats to sell at school on Fridays.

Or you can simply just ask for donations.

For more information on these ideas, check out
www.keyclub.org/TheEliminateProject or
www.TheEliminateProject.org

*Lets also remember that $1.80 saves a mother and her
future babies.*

THE GOVERNORS PROJECT

Quick Reminder: Key Club will focus on three key initiatives for The Eliminate
Project from now through 2015. All three are related to Kiwanis familys plan
to raise US$110 million to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus. These are
priorities to look for during the year.
1. Trick-Or-Treat (www.TheEliminateProject.org/trickortreat)
2. Eliminate Week (www.TheEliminateProject.org/eliminateweek)
3. Go For The Goal (www.TheEliminateProject.org/slprecognition)



Think About It: Whats our club doing to help protect moms
and babies through The Eliminate Project? How can I inspire
everyone to get involved?













































Service Projects are needed because we are helping
the communities in the world. There are five
elements that you need to remember:
1. Seek Out Community Needs.
2. Educate members.
3. Respond to the Needs.
4. Reflect.
5. Evaluate and Celebrate.
