These 3 are very projects! I still prefer providing water filltration devices to 3rd world countries in need of fresh drinking water.

As an organization, we need a project where we can address specific individuals and measure the results with some success. Of the three, I think the NTD problem is that kind of project, not that the other two aren't as worthy. But The Gates Foundation is an excellent resource for the funding necessary for these two, for all three actually. Once our project is selected, the next best job to do is to educate the members with a very widespread and focused campaign to get all on board asap. This will make a quick impact and unify all our resources. The last two earthquake scenarios have lacked this focus and awareness.

The Global Network NTDs is an extraordinary need with powerful results based upon 50 cents/person annually. The value of a childs life is as great as the human potential and all it requires is money, education, distribution and management. $150 million can leverage one billion dollars ...that's a huge impact. This appears to be $100 of benefit for every $15 raised. We can do this! ...and what a unifying impact Kiwanis can create with this global initiative.

I support fully the project for Malaria No More and the Canadian Red Cross: Malaria. Eliminating Malaria in Africa would be of major stride in humanitarian effort.

While the other projects are certainly worthwhile, noble, and desperately needed, I truly believe they will take much more effort, funding, and research to be truly successful.

It is not an easy thing to pick one of three final list projects especially when you realize there are so many others which could be addressed. I suggest that the Global Network NTD's appears to be the most cost effective of the three and, therefore, support its selection. I would, however, encoiurage all Kiwanians not to forget to support one or more of the many worthy projects identified in addition to the world-wide project KI finally selects to support.

It's will be difficult to decide which project is more worthy when there is so much need.

I like the Global Network NTDs as best project

re: Convention: A-list lineup

Angela Evans — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 21:31:07 GMT

The convention will take place at the Las Vegas Convention Center. There is a link to the convention center's Web site on the KI Vegas site at sites.kiwanis.org/.../registration.aspx. There is a floor plan on that site although I don't believe we have rooms mapped out for our events and presentations yet. On the floor plan page of the Vegas Convention Center site, there is also a link to view a campus overview map and that would show you the official KI hotels in relations to the convention center. Hope that helps!

re: Kiwanis making special announcement

"Kiwanis making special announcement" is very out-dated . . . from last summer's convention. I'm looking for up-to-date information.

re: Convention: A-list lineup

Loretta Walter — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 22:08:50 GMT

I have not been able to find out exactly where the convention is being held. Is it in the convention center or one of the hotels? Is it being held in separate hotels or all in one place.

This makes a difference when booking a hotel. Can I get some better information?

Why are we advertising Dr. Keith when the Nashville Convention is done and gone?
