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.

Do your part

EDUCATE yourself.

ADVOCATE to the world.

INVEST to save and protect.

ELIMINATE maternal and neonatal tetanus.

What is the ELIMINATE Project?

The Eliminate Project is a joint project with Kiwanis and

UNICEF to internationally terminate MNT.

What is MNT?

In 30 countries around the world, maternal and neonatal

tetanus (MNT) can quickly turn the joy of childbirth into

tragedy. MNT kills one baby every nine minutes. Its

effects are excruciating– tiny newborns suffer repeated,

painful convulsions and extreme sensitivity to light and

touch. There is little hope of survival. And tetanus kills

mothers too.

Who suffers from MNT?

MNT is caused when tetanus spores, found in soil

everywhere, come into contact with open cuts during

childbirth. The disease strikes the poorest of the poor, the

geographically hard to reach and those without health

care.

$1.80 = enough to save a mother and her newborn’s lives.

Each year, more than 4 million people in

over 20 countries raise much-needed funds and awareness to save lives from cancer through the Relay For Life

movement. During a Relay event, participants and survivors celebrate what they've overcome.

We remember people lost to cancer, and honor people who have fought or are fighting cancer.

The event inspires Relay participants to take tangible action against a disease that has taken too much.

Vinny Le and Greg Park Vinny and Greg will be helping me keep in

contact with schools in Auburn. We will be visiting

Auburn High School for support and help. They will also be helping us throughout the year

promoting and brainstorming DCM, socials, and

fundraisers.

Please help me in welcoming Vinny and Greg Park
