Relay for Life What is Relay for Life?

Each Relay For Life event is special to its community, but the movement's true power lies in the combined commitment of thousands of participants, volunteers, and supporters to help the American Cancer Society save lives from cancer.

Why join the Committee?

“I joined Relay because I wanted to help people. My best friend lost his brother to cancer and watching him go through that was heartbreaking. I didn’t want anyone else to go through that.” – Ethan Wong (Club VP) “I joined the Relay for Life Committee because I really wanted to expand my communication skills while at the same time, being part of a team that works together an entire year to plan for one huge cancer fighting event.”

– Peter Che’’’’n (Div 28 LTG) “I joined the Relay for Life committee because I wanted to make a significant contribution to lessening cancer’s grasp on peoples lives. I love working with the enthusiastic and supportive members of the committee, knowing that we are all making a difference for the countless number of people who are impacted by cancer.” – Melinda Guo (Club Member)

Highland Center Feeding People should definitely volunteer for the Highland Center because it is honestly a very special opportunity to serve the disabled community. I have always enjoyed getting to meet other Key Clubbers and hang out with Kiwanis members who are there, but also, I really enjoy being able to help out by setting up, serving food, and cleaning up. It always makes me happy knowing that I can truly help others just by doing that, and it's a lot of fun!! – Charlene Lam

When: Every third Thursday of the month What time: 4:15pm6:15pm Where: Highland Center near YMCA (14224 Bel-Red Rd, Bellevue, WA 98007)

Builders Club Builders Club is like Key Club but for middle school; they do service and build leadership at an earlier age before joining Key Club.

Andes Lee (Club President), would like to ask if there are any members that would be willing to volunteer 5 Tuesday’s for 1 hour. You would be working with middle school students and be one of the people leading the club. If you are interested, please reach out to him!
