Capital District Kiwanis Initiative For Africa

By: Ayaz Siraj, Dulles Area Kiwanis President Elect


Last Sunday we had guest speaker Katherine Bronson come talk to us about the Capital District's Initiative for Africa. This meeting was one of the most fun, and informative meetings in our short DAK history. This meeting probably ranks up there with the Jeopardy meeting we had last year. We had folks there from the Leesburg club and the Arlington club which made the meeting even more fun.



I have a copy of the Power Point presentation on the Initiative For Africa that Kat showed and if you wish to review it again, I can send it to you by email (just post a comment and I'll send it your way). I would like to encourage all of you to donate as all it takes is $5 from each of us to help achieve the district's goal of $25,000. I would also like to encourage you to talk to your friends and family about this initiative as, it is my belief that everyone wants to help, but we have to ask them for the help.


All donations can be made by sending a check made out to the Capital District Kiwanis Foundation and mailed to

1601 Charrington Drive
Midlothian, VA 23113.


If you feel more comfortable giving the donation to me, I would be glad to send it in on your behalf. Your canceled check will serve as your receipt for tax purposes. This initiative is also listed in Facebook in the Causes section. If you are a Facebook member, you can join the cause and donate using Facebook. All transactions on Facebook are secure. Here's a link to the Facebook page: http://apps.facebook.com/causes/211955?m=de0957a2


Thank you for your help in this worthy cause.
