Who will be the winner? Quarters for kids Deadline in almost here!

Attention club and district leaders, the deadline for the 2002 Quarters for Kids Treasure Chest campaign is June 30, 2002. This means the district whose clubs combine to make the most donations sent in to the foundation will be the winner of the nations Quarters for Kids Treasure Chest campaign.

The campaign places an emphasis on the following:

1. To raise funds for Exchange's child abuse prevention and youth related efforts;
2. to encourage all Exchange Clubs to participate in the national QFK Treasure Chest campaign;
3. To build a Treasure Chest collection of toys and basic necessity items that will be given to less fortunate families and children.

For every club that donates $25 or more to the QFK Treasure Chest campaign, a toy or basic item will be placed in the treasure chest in the name of the club (only one toy or gift will be purchased per club). To date there are approximately 126 clubs participating, with many more expected to make donations by the deadline. The winning district will be announced at the 84th Annual Convention in Minneapolis, Minn., during the Saturday morning Child Abuse Prevention breakfast.

The more your club donates, the more awards your club can achieve, and greater your chances are of helping your district win the national QFK Treasure Chest. For your dedicated efforts in the campaign, the NEC Foundation will recognize those outstanding clubs who have gone above and beyond the call of duty.

So, time is of the essence! It's not too late to make a donation on behalf of your club and district. If you would like further information , please contact Jamie Orians, Marketing Director, Child Abuse Prevention Services, 800-924-2643.
