2. Introduction
• California based legal professional Robert Carlin Burlison has been
active with the La Canada and Glendale chapters of Kiwanis
International for more than 30 years. Through his involvement with the
Kiwanis ELIMINATE Project, Robert C. Burlison raised $37,000 for
tetanus eradication. Every year, Kiwanis International's 500,000
members contribute millions of both dollars and volunteer hours to
support important causes. The organization summarized some of its
biggest accomplishments in its 2019 end of year newsletter.
Early in the year, Kiwanis members pooled their resources to support
Midwestern families impacted by severe floods. Additionally, the
organization donated $25,000 to the city of Barron, Wisconsin, to build
an inclusive playground for local children. Internationally, Kiwanis
supported UNICEF’s programs in the Democratic Republic of Congo and
Chad to eliminate neonatal tetanus through a successful immunization
program. Over the year, the organization was also able to widen its
reach by establishing more than 400 new club chapters.
