Letter from the President
Key Club Pledge I pledge, on my honor, to uphold the Objects of Key Club International; to build my home, school and community; to serve my nation and God; and combat all forces which tend to undermine these institutions.
Hello, fellow Key Club members! I am so glad to announce that our first semester of service is complete, and it has been an amazing one. The countless number of hours that have been completed so far would not have been possible without you, and I'm ecstatic to see what we'll accomplish during the second semester. I wish you all happy holidays and can't wait to begin the nexr phase our club alongside you! -Joseph Khair -Haley Wehr

Letter From the Editor
Hey Vikings!
1. I have cities, but no houses. I have mountains, but no trees. I have water, but no fish. What am I?
2. You see a boat filled with people. It has not sunk, but when you look again you don’t see a single person on the boat. Why?

3. I come from a mine and get surrounded by wood always. Everyone uses me. What am I?

December Monthly Review Our main service opportunity of December was ringing the Salvation Army Bells at Walmart (located nearby the Dallas Cowboys Stadium). We had tons of fun singing songs and dancing while Patrick played his violin as well as hosting an unofficial spirit competition with the Arlington High School Key Club at the opposite entrance.
Raising money for the Salvation Army while spreading holiday cheer was a great way to end our fall semester of service.

Member Member of of the the Month Month "What I love most about my experience with Key Club is working alongside others who are eager to help. Whether it is freezing cold outside, dreadfully hot, or even 6 AM in the morning, I am always astounded by the positivity surrounding me. More importantly, my fellow Key Clubbers are reliable. Whether we’re in a meeting or working together on a Saturday outside of school, I know someone always has my back. The officers I work with are people eager to make our club a better organization. They’re constantly communicating about new ideas and how to progress our club so it’s bigger and better than ever. To me, Key Club isn’t just a club, it’s a community of people who love each other in order to bring love to the community around them."

“Our mission is to increase funds and awareness for children’s health and other miracle network hospitals.”
“Through The Eliminate Project, Kiwanis International and UNICEF have joined forces to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus—a deadly disease that steals the lives of nearly 34,000 innocent babies and a significant number of women each year.”
“March of Dimes leads the fight for the health of all moms and babies. We believe that every baby deserves the best possible start.” “UNICEF works in over 190 countries and territories to save children’s lives, to defend their rights, and to help them fulfil their potential, from early childhood through adolescence.”
