FROM YOUR LT.G Message from your Lieutenant Governor
Hey Division 70 Key Clubbers! I hope you are all enjoying the summer! Don’t forget though, just because it’s summer break, it doesn't mean that Key Club is on a break as well! You can always find many opportunities to continue serving your communities throughout the summer! Just check your Key Club websites, emails, and Facebook pages for more events and ideas on how to serve! Be creative this summer! Division 70, challenge yourselves to soak up some sun in service this summer! Also, make sure to not miss out on Key Club events throughout the District this summer! Portland Area Rally was amazing and I thank all of those that were in attendance! But, if you missed out, don’t worry! There are still many rallies and events left this summer so don’t miss out on those as well! In Care and Service,
Jimin Lee

RECAP Your New International Vice President From The PNW District! Hello Pacific Northwest District Key Clubbers! Over this past week, I along with 39 other PNW Key Clubbers and six Kiwanis chaperones had the opportunity to attend the 71st annual International Convention in the vibrant city of Anaheim, California. While there, we had the opportunity to attend educational workshops, meet Key Clubbers from across the world, and elect the 2014-2015 Key Club International Board. I am truly humbled and honored to announce that I was chosen out of a field of four other highly qualified candidates to be your next International Vice President. My biggest support throughout the entire journey, from the moment I decided to run until my name was announced on stage, was the entire Pacific Northwest District. So let me take this time to thank every single one of you- all 13,000+ members. It was your support that got me through not only ICON week but the months leading up to it. Thank you to everyone that messaged be “good luck� and to all of those that congratulated me afterwards. Even though many of you did not attend ICON 2014, I still felt as if all of you were alongside me. I look forward to personally thanking many of you as I travel to some of the upcoming area rallies. To all the graduating seniors, even though I will not have the opportunity to serve you for this upcoming year, I hope that many of you will decide to join Circle K in college and eventually Kiwanis. Once again, THANK YOU to the mighty Pacific Northwest District! I look forward to yet another fantastic year of service, friendship, and growth not only for Key Club International but also for our district! In Service,
Kevin Zhang

ELIM District Project: The
With The Eliminate Project, Kiwanis International and UNICEF have joined forces to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus. Neonatal tetanus kills one baby every nine minutes—nearly 60,000 newborn children every year. A significant number of women also die due to maternal tetanus. The effects of the disease are excruciating— tiny newborns suffer repeated, painful convulsions and extreme sensitivity to light and touch. To eliminate MNT from the Earth, 129 million mothers and their future babies must be immunized. This requires vaccines, syringes, safe storage, transportation, thousands of skilled staff and more. It will take $110 million—and the dedicated work of UNICEF and every member of the Kiwanis family. Kiwanis and UNICEF joined forces to tackle iodine deficiency disorders, achieving one of the most significant public health successes of the 20th century. Now, together, they are eliminating MNT from the face of the Earth. In doing so, the project will reach the poorest, most neglected mothers and babies with additional lifesaving health care. The end of this one disease means the beginning of better health for so many families.

DIVISIONAL POSITIONS Divisional Positions
DIVISIONAL EXECUTIVE ASSISTANTS Hello everyone! I just wanted to let Division 70 members know that THREE divisional positions will be opening up soon! I apologize to the upperclassmen as this position is only available to freshmen and sophomores. This position will be open to ONE underclassmen from Silverton High School, North Marion High School, and South Salem High School. Generally, underclassmen who would consider running for Lieutenant Governor in the future should apply for this position. Expect the application form to be released throughout the Division as school starts up again! In Care and Service,
Jimin Lee Lieutenant Governor of Division 70
