LTG MESSAGE
To start, I'm incredibly grateful for this opportunity to work with so many wonderful people and help our community grow as a whole. The last few years have been hectic, but this upcoming year will be a time of recovering together. Currently, I plan to reconnect our clubs and renew our division. If the conditions allow, I will host more inter-club events and meetings as the Lieutenant Governor. Yours in Friendship & Service,
More about me: I had no clue what Key Club was until last year when I was introduced to it by a friend. I couldn't help but admire all of the hardworking people that have come together to support and improve the environment around them. Since then, I've grown as a member and a Founder of my own Key Club. (Also please call me Kim!) 03

Governor's Project
Empowering the People
This project is geared toward creating a supportive and encouraging environment in our homes, schools, and communities through various service activities. By uplifting our peers and even the many strangers we see around us daily, we can increase morale and mental health. These past few years have hit many of our communities hard, but it's our time to rise up, level up, and fight back.
So How Can You Help? Create and hang encouraging posters Raise donations for local health care workers/teachers/first responders Write letters to local elderly homes Create baskets for patients in the hospital. Host public speaking/confidence forums for middle school and elementary students Create bookmarks with encouraging quotes to leave at library! 15
Looking for another way to get involved? Work with Erika's Lighthouse, a proud partner with Key Club International! They are focused on improving mental health, especially in teens.
Have any Questions? Email the Governor (Contacts can be found on Page 20)

s e l i m S Books2
Having access to a book- whether that being in school or at home- is not a reality for all children across the world. This project is for children to have a chance to read a book & experience what we take for granted.
Books that are left lying on shelves, unused, will now have a purpose in helping bring a smile to a child's face across the world.
We are partnering with Books-2-Smiles to send books to impoverished areas in the United States and across the world!
How can you help? Please reach out to your local libraries, neighbors, and families and ask them for any discarded/unused books! Contact the LTG (Kimberly Pham) at (832) 992-6260 or through email at kpha1660@gmail.com to drop off book donations. 16
