LOOKING FOR A HANDS-ON SERVICE PROJECT?

This is a perfect project for ALL Clubs…large or small! I encourage your Club to complete this project which can save lives and prevent traumatic injuries to infants and toddlers.

MY KIWANIS MOMENT
I visited my doctor in July 2020, and she told me she was pregnant with her first child. She and her husband were obviously excited. They knew the baby would be a girl expected in February. About a month later I had a follow up appointment, and I brought her an Early Childhood Injury Prevention Kit. She was grateful for the information especially the water sensitive duck.
I saw her again this past May and asked how she and her baby, Piper, were doing. Of course she had to show me pictures and a video of the adorable baby. As I was leaving she said to me; “You know, I think of you every day when I give Piper a bath, and I put that duck in her bath water to test the temperature!” I was speechless. And she made my day! We never know how many
lives we touch when we complete service projects or do an act of kindness. But we definitely do. Kiwanians do make a difference in this world.
