Eliada Home Kiwanis Playground Update
We will be giving about $1800 towards the playground, which is the money raised from the silent auction at our gala.
Another way you can help is to sign up for Amazon Smile and add Eliada Home as your charity. When you buy anything on Amazon, 5% of the purchase will go towards the Eliada Playground. You have to place your order from the Amazon Smile page. Tell your family and friends so they can help us too! If you need help, I can show you at our next meeting.

Our speaker was Kristina Lunsford, the program director for Xplore USA, a summer day camp for international students. Xplore USA facilitates cultural and educational programs for both American and international students. They are expecting about 60-70 students during July and August of 2020, so many families will be needed to host a student.
