Programs launched since 1960 used leaflets and film strips to educate students, curb initiation, and promote quitting. The effort expanded to college and elementary levels with campaigns and campus advertising restrictions.

Piggy Banks Aid Ecuador Water Pumps Drive
Piggy banks made of decorated bottles raise pennies for a national fund to buy water pumps for villages in Ecuador. The project, led by Olive Johnson of Francis DeBrunner Unit 286, will use CARE and the Peace Corps for installation. It aims to fund 100 pumps at $125 each, with wells being dug as first pumps arrive. The report also notes a Dominican Republic school-building project moving toward completion, funded by pennies raised. Also included are canning tips to invert evaporated or condensed milk to prevent solids from clumping.
