The Focus this year will be to help support United Nations Shot @ Life Campaign: This organization seeks to educate, connect and empower Americans to champion vaccines in order to save children in developing countries: Every 20 seconds, a child is disabled or dies of a vaccine-preventable disease like pneumonia, diarrhea, measles and polio. You can help save a child's life by donating vaccines. The vaccine can save a child and help to reduce treatment costs. A $20 donation can give vaccines to four children. Please discuss this important issue at your next club meeting and consider sending a donation.

UNICEF: We are having a Trick or Treat fundraiser at the fall Convention.
