Key Club Trick-or-Treating tops $30,000
Costumed Key Clubbers and members of other Kiwanis Service Leadership Program clubs hit the streets this past Halloween with their UNICEF coin-collection boxes, raising US$31,734.41. The event is a major fundraiser in their quest to collect US$1.5 million for Operation Uruguay.
For more than 60 years, children in the United States have gone door to door collecting coin donations for UNICEF. Since 1994, Key Club has joined in the fun. Like Kiwanis, UNICEF is a worldwide organization dedicated to serving children's needs. Over the past 16 years, Key Clubbers-with help from Builders Clubs-have raised nearly US$5 million for iodine deficiency programs worldwide, HIV and AIDS programs in Kenya and Swaziland and, most recently, Operation Uruguay: Protecting the rights of children.
Please submit any remaining UNICEF collections as soon as possible to keep the total climbing. Complete a Donation Transmittal Form (LINK: http://www.unicefusa.org/partners/ngo/Key-Club-Donation-Transmittal-Form.pdf) for each donation. Send remaining donations to Key Club, P.O. Box 7096 Dept. 244, Indianapolis, Indiana 46206-7096, or call 1-800-KIWANIS, ext. 411, to charge donations to a credit card.
