ASPEN News:

Aspen Elementary School’s K-Kids just completed a week-long fundraiser for Project Eliminate – and initiative of Kiwanis International to help rid the world of the deadly disease tetanus.

Money was collected in classrooms every day for a week and the class with the most money collected each day received a small prize.

At the end of the week Mrs. Taylor’s 2nd grade received an award for the classroom with the highest total for the week. But the real winners are the 555 mothers, babies, and future offspring saved from this terrible disease with the $1,000 collected overall!

A chain with 555 links, each with a syringe graphic, was created and draped throughout the hallways of Aspen School giving a visual representation of how many moms and babies have been saved from the disease.

Way to make a difference, K-Kids!
