A letter from our International Trustee

What Makes Key Club Unique?

Key Club is the largest high school service organization in the world, but what

makes it so special and what enables it to continue to grow? It can’t be the ability to

volunteer because no matter where you go, you can find a way to give back to your

community. You can even volunteer globally through UNICEF, Rustic Pathways, and other

worldwide organizations. What makes Key Club is different from every other organization

out there is the tight-knit community that it creates between people who live on opposite

sides of a city, a state, a nation, or the world.

To fully seize the opportunities that Key Club provides high school students, it’s

important for everyone to be involved with their divisions, their district, and international.

You can get involved with Key Club International by attending Key Club events, joining

social media sites that are created to link together Key Clubbers from all over the world,

and talking to your district leaders! In terms of the division, your Lieutenant Governor

should be having Divisional Council Meetings every so often in order to bring the entire

division together. Your division is composed of the schools around you that have Key

Clubs. At these meetings, take advantage of the close distance between you and the

other Key Clubbers in attendance. Arrange meet-ups, socials, and joint volunteer projects

to increase your impact on your community and meet people who you otherwise would

have not had the chance to meet!

In terms of your district, the Pacific Northwest District is composed of all of the Key

Clubs in Alaska, Washington, and Oregon, as well as some of the clubs in western Idaho,

northern California, and Canada. There are rallies in the summer for all Key Clubbers in a

specific region to attend and meet new people. At these rallies, you’re bound to have an

amazing time while also learning about Key Club International through educational

forums. Each year, PNW also hosts District Convention: an exciting weekend in which Key

Clubbers from all over the district unite to celebrate the end of a wonderful year of

service and prepare for the next one. If you have the chance to attend District

Convention, I highly recommend it!

Yours in service,

Roshni Chandwani

The Eliminate Project

The campaign has already raised

more than 53 million dollars and

has eliminated MNT from 34

countries! The goal that UNICEF

and Kiwanis have set is to raise

$100 million by the completion of

the project in 2016. If that goal is

reached, it would be enough to

successfully eliminate Maternal

and Neonatal tetanus from the

planet entirely. We can’t do it

without you!
