Key Club is great in that there are so many acts of service to choose from, whether it's an in-person or virtual event. Through these events, key clubbers get to indulge in volunteering and meeting new people, making new memories along the way. One event that really stuck with me was volunteering at the Chinatown Community Fridge. The fridge and pantry are run by a team of youth and local volunteers who strive to support a food-insecure community through providing fresh produce, goods, and other necessities. The whole purpose behind this event is what got me really excited to volunteer! I loved walking along with the neighborhood with other volunteers as we gathered the necessities to stock up the fridge. As we filled the fridge, senior citizens and other locals started gathering around as they grabbed some of the produce. The smiles on their faces absolutely warmed my heart. I am so thankful for being able to help. Seeing everyone’s spirit really brightened up my day. Plus, the community there is so wholesome! I would definitely volunteer again and hope others can join in :) -Mashiyat Ahmed (NEST+M High School) Division 11
