This morning's meeting of the Chatham-Kent Golden K Kiwanis club was a very special event. 7 members received their Walter Zeller Fellowship medals for their individual contributions to the ELIMINATE Project of $1250.00 or more. EC&C ELIMINATE Coordinator Jim Garey and his wife Sue were in attendance to present the awards. LG Bud and his wife (and brand new Kiwanis member) Jackie were also in attendance.
PLG Jim Garey advised the group that Division 3 is leading the charge against eliminating maternal neo-natal tetanus in the remaining 31 countries where is remains a needless form of death for new born babies and mothers. Two clubs in the division have come forward and declared that they are going to be MODEL clubs - The Chatham-Kent Golden K and the Sarnia-Lambton Golden K. Way to go gang!!!
Now is the time for the other clubs in Division 3 to step up to the plate and get your events planned to raise the necessary funds to ELIMINATE this disease. Lets go team!!!
