Hand-in-hand, Kiwanis and UNICEF are changing the world..
THE ELIMINATE PROJECT Maternal/neonatal tetanus is easily prevented by a series of three vaccinations to women of childbearing age, costing roughly US$1.80.

The Eliminate Project will officially kick off at the 96th Annual Kiwanis International Convention in Geneva.
