The Southwest Georgia
Home School Associa
tion Key Club conducted
their annual “Trick or
Treat for UNICEF” at the
regular luncheon meet
ing of the Kiwanis Club
of Dougherty County
recently. The students
collected $272 from the
effort, which will benefit
the worldwide fight to
eliminate neonatal tet
anus, a disease that can
be fatal to newborns and
their mothers in develop
ing countries. The club
will also be soliciting
donations in some neigh
borhoods in the commu
nity such as Stonebridge.
In addition to the
“Eliminate Project”, the
SGHSA Key Club is ac
tive throughout the year
in numerous local activ
ities. They provide time,
labor, and fundraising
efforts for things such
as Family Day at the
Albany Museum of Art,
Albany-Dougherty Clean
& Beautiful’s “Stash the
Trash”, Christmas boxes
for clients of the Anchor
age, funds for Georgia
Sheriffs’ Youth Homes,
support for the Albany
Rescue Mission, helping
with Kiwanis DoCo’s
holiday pancake break
fast and annual Student
Art Contest, and comfort
gifts for pediatric pa
tients at Phoebe Putney
Memorial Hospital,
among others.
The SGHSA Key Club,
sponsored by Kiwan
is Club of Dougherty
County with Mel Al
mond as liaison, has
also consistently brought
home awards from the
annual Georgia Kiwanis
District Key Club Con
vention.
Faculty advisor Toni
Hatfield thanked the
Kiwanians for all they
do to support the Key
Club, such as provid
ing funds for Key Club
members to attend the
annual state Service &
Leadership Conference
to be held next Febru
ary in Peachtree City. A
slideshow of the various
Key Club activities was
shown and club officers
made brief presentations.
Hatfield also noted that
the $272 collected is
enough to save 151 lives
through vaccinations.
