How Rock Valley Kiwanis Will Help

(and how you can help!)

Rock Valley Kiwanis Club will sponsor this web site through December 31, 2002.   There is a pressing need during that period, with the Afghan winter coming on, and we have an ambassador on the ground during that period to focus our efforts.  Here's what we'll do (and what you can do):

What Rock Valley Kiwanis is doing

Publicizing this need throughout our community, through Kiwanis and other community-support organizations, and veterans' organizations.

Acting as a central point-of-contact for those who want to help.
