    Holiday countdownWith the holidays in full swing it is vitally important that we do all that

    we can before the end of the year. Babies are dying every day and we

    can stop it with just one gift of $1.80, $750 per-member average,

    $100,000 and gifts of all levels.

    Please use the next two weeks in December to make sure each divi-

    sion coordinator recruits at least 3 club coordinators and makes at

    least 1 Model Club ask.

    Together, singular actions can make a big difference.

    Enjoy these fundraising ideas from Ohio:

    a. Columbus Kiwanis held its second annual 5K run on Sunday No-vember 4, an event which supports its Model Club efforts for TheEliminate Project and has also been added as the clubs signatureevent.

    b. Cincinnati Kiwanis, another Model Club, held an Angels andDemons fundraiser raising $675. The event featured a fall-themed buf-fet dinner, a silent auction, a Vampire cabernet with a $5 donation toEliminate for every bottle of wine sold, and a Costume Contest.Event coordinator Amy Zimmerman suggest starting small, finding a neighborhood venue and/or turning ahappy hour into a themed event that engages the community.
