Happy December!

Thank you to everyone who came out to Skate to Eliminate last month with Division 28, the fundraiser was a great success and we raised over $1300 for the Eliminate Project! Also, thank you to all the clubs that have submitted their dues on time!

As we’re wrapping up the year, please keep in mind that this is the last year Key Club will be focusing on the Eliminate Project. With that being said, make sure to submit your donation funds to the campaign office in Indianapolis before December 31st.

In this newsletter, you’ll find a recap of last month’s DCM, information regarding the next, and all about the upcoming events- division and district wide!

Have a lovely December, and make sure to look out for Dance to Eliminate: Seattle, next month!

In Love and Service,

So now I have a question: Key Clubbers, How Do You Feel?

Y O U

I am writing to introduce myself, and wish you well in your new Key Club year. I will soon be starting a year as Kiwanis Lt. Governor in Division 26, just as Christina Nguyen is your Key Club Lt. Governor in Division 26. My big goals are to strengthen all clubs in Division 26 through growth in membership, service, and community involvement, and activities with sponsored Key Clubs are really important to those goals. I will be meeting with Christina regularly, and working with her to make sure that our Division 26 Kiwanis Clubs are all working together with their Key Clubs. This includes sponsorship, leadership guidance, and working together on fundraising and service projects. Thank You all for being involved with Service through Key Club!
