Health Conditions & Disease Awareness
Cardiovascular Disease
Our Advocacy Focus is a way for us to raise awareness for specific relevant issues. This year, we are focusing on various prevalent diseases in America. For the past couple months, we focused on Alzheimer's Disease Awareness, and for April, we are focusing on Cardiovascular Disease. Being the leading cause of death for men and women in the U.S., heart disease is a huge issue afflicting people of all ages. In February with our Drop N'Dine event, we were able to raise money for the Ethan Lindberg Foundation, an organization supporting those with Congenital Heart Defects (heart defects present at birth). Just last month, we raised money for the Ronald McDonald House charity which provides housing and other resources to children battling with pediatric illness.

District Project
Education is Key!
The District Project is a way for Key Club to make active steps at making a change in the lives of students. This year our District Project is centered around providing the necessary means for a student to reach their academic potential and grow as an individual. So far, we have achieved this through our Key Traits 4 Kids field trips, and in February, we held our Week of Service.
