The Norwood-Norfolk Key Club made Valentines Day cards for senior citizens. They actually heard about this from their other Norwood Kiwanis sponsored Madrid-Waddington Key Club. We thought it would be great to do a dual project from afar. The local Youth Bureau was holding the event to get as many cards to senior citizens as they could. The NNCS Key Clubbers did them during a meeting, on their own, and even did them while they were doing their basketball concessions. At one of the basketball games the members had put cards out on the tables and invited others to make cards as well. It was fun players from the opposing team even came to make a card. The Madrid-Waddington Key Club made cards at their meetings. The Youth Bureau was so happy to receive the cards from both of the Key Clubbers. Written by: Patti Dean, Norwood-Norfolk Advisor

Harley High School (Division 23)

The Harley School Key Club partnered with the American Red Cross to hold a blood drive on January 28, 2022. Key Club advertised the drive using posters, social media posts, and school-wide announcements. Key Club also helped to organize the logistics of the drive. During the drive, club members volunteered in a variety of ways. Some members helped guide donors through the school to the location of the drive, while others took temperatures and checked in donors. Key clubbers also handed out snacks to donors after they had finished giving blood. Donors came from both inside and outside the Harley community, with many faculty, staff, and students giving blood. Overall, the blood drive was a huge success. The Red Cross collected a total of 31 units of blood, surpassing its goal. The drive was especially important this year due to the national blood shortage, and the club is proud to have assisted the Red Cross during this crisis. Key Club intends to hold another blood drive on April 12, 2022. Written by: Frances Dickinson, member of Harley Key Club
