What’s Going On?
International and District!
“The Pacific Northwest
is the beginning, the
world is our goal”
– Past Kiwanis Governor; Frank Morehouse
What’s KCCP?
KCCP was founded in 2010 by past
Governor Frank Morehouse. It was
inspired by a little girl named Penny,
who was diagnosed with a brain
tumor. She later lost her fight against
cancer. KCCP is in honor of Penny.
ATTENTION TO ALL PNW KEY CLUBEBRS!
KCCP is our DISTRICT
PROJECT! As the Pacific Northwest district, let us
join together to find a cure for
children’s cancer. There is no end to
this project until the cure is found.
What can YOU do to help?
Make Trauma Dolls for cancer
patients
Fundraise, Fundraise, And
Fundraise!
Educate others on this needy
cause.
Volunteer your time! Make activity books!
WHAT IF YOU COULD
SAVE A BABY’S LIFE? Maternal and neonatal tetanus
(MNT) kills one baby every nine
minutes — that's 60,000 babies
every year who will never grow up,
make their mothers laugh, play with
friends or dream about the future.
The effects of the disease are
excruciating — tiny newborns suffer
repeated, painful convulsions and
extreme sensitivity to light and
touch. A significant number of
women die from MNT each year
too.
EDUCATE Educate yourself about MNT, and share
what you learn with your club, your
community, your family and your school.
ADVOCATE Let the world know that the poorest, most
vulnerable babies and mothers need our
help. Rally others to get involved. Add a
link to www.TheEliminateProject.org on
your club website.
INVEST Be among the first to invest in this global
campaign for children. Make an initial gift
today.
ELIMINATE Over the next five years, the work you do
to eliminate MNT will change the world.
Together, Kiwanis and
UNICEF will eliminate MNT and give the
poorest families the chance to lead the
healthy lives they deserve.

order to bring our
division closer, here is
a challenge for you.
This is the bucket list

different ways you
and your club can be
more involved within
our division. These are
a few ideas that I
have thought of. If
you think of anything
else that we can do,
contact me! We will
be discussing more
ideas at the next
DCM! If you have any
ideas, either text,
facebook, or email
me!

2. Have at least five members consistently attend DCM’S
3. Recognize an amazing member!
Fun and friends
1. Host a divisional social
2. Lead an icebreaker

inclusive person will truly make an impact in someone’s life. Remember our motto, ‘caring-
our way of life’ and keep it in mind throughout this year, and the years to come!
