Non notable school group--all or almost all the references are from the local paper & similar sources. It's written like copyvio, but I did not find the source. I've tried editing it to make it less promotional and give it a chance, but they reverted me, saying , when I removed a list of their two dozen founders and officers, "no reason for removal of helpful list. Next time, please do it correctly". DGG ( talk ) 00:13, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Query. Is this article too local to be considered independent? Bongomatic 01:50, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- It is an international group. It has chapters in the US and in other countries. It has built over five clinics in Africa and participated in global conferences. It is no meager school group. I will make the article less promotional. Once that is done, the article should stay. Thanks.--Eliscoming1234 (talk) 04:00, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak keep I think the sources are a bit borderline but they do establish notability. This is an area where sourcing can be difficult - Kids Doing Something Worthy is local newspaper fodder but a lot of charitable work in Africa has very little web presence. bobrayner (talk) 05:11, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
