LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR LETTER

Hello, Key Clubbers!

First of all, I wanted to thank everyone for making District Convention 2015 such a blast! Seeing everyone having the time of their lives and celebrating another year of Key Club was such an amazing experience. I hope that you all had a memorable time-whether it may be your first or last convention, and that it either taught or reminded you what Key Club is really all about: Service!

Also, congratulations to all the new officers! I look forward to working with you and your clubs over the next year. So let’s make this a good one!

I’d also like to give a thank you to immediate past lieutenant governor, Kevin Ngo, for being such a great mother to our division and for believing in my abilities to take care of the 26 family. I hope I make you proud.

In love and service, Christina Nguyen Lieutenant Governor of Division 26 Pacific Northwest Key Club International

March of Dimes is a charity organization dedicated to assisting moms in having full-term pregnancies and delivering babies. They have researched the genetic causes behind numerous birth effects and have shared the best practices for perinatal health to help give newborns a healthy start to life.

The Children's Miracle Network has raised over $5 billion dollars since it was founded in 1983 to give to hospitals in the United States and Canada. The money has gone towards research, equipment and funding uncompensated care over the years. Treating the 62 patients who are admitted into their hospitals every minute, their goal always remains simple: To save kids’ lives.

Active in over 190 distinct countries and territories, the United Nations Children’s Fund believes in the rights and wellbeing of every child, and convey this in everything they do. They work hands on in countries to help children overcome the results of their every day obstacles: poverty, violence, discrimination and disease.
