KIWANIS CHARITIES OF SAINT JOHN

about

The Kiwanis Club of Saint John is assisting Kiwanis International and Unicef to raise US$110 million to eliminate Maternal Neonatal Tetanus (MNT) in developing countries around the world.  The government of Canada will match all gifts dollar for dollar that are given through the Kiwanis Charities of Saint John.

Some facts about MNT and the solution that Kiwanis and Unicef provides:

  • 1 baby dies every 11 minutes from tetanus

  • 134 newborns die every day from tetanus

  • MNT has been eliminated from more than 35 countries since 2000.

  • A series of 3 doses of the tetanus vacine = immunity from tetanus

  • Women + vaccine = protect baby

  • US$1.80 protects one woman and her future babies

  • $25.00 donation will protect 28 women and their future chldren (with the matching grant from the government of Canada)

 Or if you would like to save 690 lives and become a Walter Zeller Fellow just donate $625.  With the matching government donation you will qualify!  Email us for more details if you have questions.

Please give as much as you can.  And thank you for helping to make a difference!
