January 27th, 2010 by AnjanaP Leave a reply »

We announced in an earlier post that Kiwanis International is currently searching for the next World Service Project, and that the Global Network is one of the top three finalists.

Kiwanis has set up a website where people can go and view all of the finalists, watch videos, and join the discussion on what the next worldwide service project should be.

If the Global Netowork is chosen, the impact that  a project of this scale and magnitude could have on controlling and eliminating NTDs worldwide is HUGE. 

The Global Network’s proposal  is to ensure that the more than 1 billion children born between 2003 and 2020 journey into adulthood as the first generation to grow and thrive without the burden of NTDs.

Please vote for the Global Network on the poll listed on the website!
