Once a month Stockton Circle Kers venture over to Route 575 (Pomona Road, right after you go over the Parkway, heading away from campus). This is the site of our NEW Adopt-A-Road Program. The 1 mile strip of 575 is where we clean up the garbage on the side of the road. It's very interesting what kind of things you will find there. You know what they say, "You can tell everything about someone by their garbage." In that case, we must have some naked, barefoot, drunk arsonists in Pomona!

Atlantic City Rescue Mission (ACRM)

This is a mission that we volunteer at from time to time, mainly in their soup kitchen. We are working on more possible projects with them for the future.

Atlantic Riding Center for the Handicapped (ARCH)

This is place that offers therapeutic riding for those that have disabilities. They have been known for increasing mobility, improving balance, improved speech development, and improved self esteem.

Beach Sweeps working with Clean Ocean Action and Water Watch

Living 15 minutes from the beach has its advantages. One of which is that us Circle Kers can head over there and clean it up. Massive amounts of litter make its way over to the beach, which is an especially bad place for it. Consider that thousands of people go to the beach each year. First of all, people dont want to be at the ocean and see the garbage, it ruins the fun of the trip. Plus, the garbage may eventually go into the ocean. Ocean pollution puts the ecosystem out of balence and is very dangerous to the plants and animals that live there. And face it, no one wants to go in the water if it's filled with garbage.

Brian C. Kull Foundation (BCKF)

This is a foundation set up in the name of a past Circle Ker. Brian C. Kull was a past Club Editor and District Editor. The Brian C. Kull Foundation sets up scholarships to NJD Circle Kers in need of financial support for college.

Iodine Deficiency Disorder (IDD)

In 1994, Kiwanis International made a promise to the world's children: Kiwanis and its Kiwanis family, in partnership with the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) is raising $75 million to virtually eliminate the world's most prevalent, preventable cause of mental retardation, iodine deficiency disorders (IDD). The successful completion of this mission will rank as one of mankind's greatest health-related achievements. More than 1.5 billion children and adults will be saved from disorders that include stillbirths, cretinism, and goiter, as well as diminished academic performance and productivity. (For the current status of the overall Worldwide Service Project, visit the WSP Progress page.)

Clubbing for KPTP

This is a fundraiser for KPTP. We go out to Club Egypt on the Waterfront in Philadelphia and make a donation to KPTP.

Kiwanis Pediatric Trauma Program (KPTP)

This is a program set up by the New Jersey Kiwanis Foundation and Robert Wood Johnson Hospital in New Brunswick, NJ. It specializes in helping children in trauma situations. Money raised goes to helping in case a child needs financial help and to training for Emergency Medical Technicians about children. Trauma Llama dolls are a huge service project with this program. Trauma Llama dolls act as a security blanket for children when they need surgery. Doctors explain to the children about the procedures that they are going to receive on the doll.
