MAJOR EMPHASIS: “Children: Their Future, Our Focus” UNICEF works with the United Nations to help over 150 developing countries to overcome the obstacles that poverty, violence, disease and discrimination place in a child’s path. Through community service, UNICEF is able to provide healthcare, sanitary water, and education for these children.

1 in 9 babies in America are born mature.

The United States has one of the highest rates for premature babies for more developed countries.

The March of Dimes funds lifesaving research and programs and works to end premature birth, birth defects and infant mortality. Every baby deserves a healthy life.

Children’s Miracle Network seeks to battle every type of childhood illness and injury. The money fundraised for the program goes towards research and training, purchasing equipment and paying uncompensated care, in its mission to save as many children’s lives as possible.

THE KEY CLUB CHEER

Leader: Hey, Key Clubbers! How do you feel?!?!

Key Clubber(s): I (we) feel good! Oh! I feel so good!

UH! (two fists, elbows tucked, downward arm thrust) Double it up, UH!UH! (two fists, elbows tucked, downward arm thrust) x2 Triple it up, UH! UH! UH! (two fists, elbows tucked, downward arm thrust) x3 One long UH! UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! (right arm extended and outward, up and down, wave-like motion.)

Rapper style, UH, UH, UH, UH, UH (fingers extended, elbows bent and un-tucked, arms form an “A” shaped wedge, sharply chop air, alternating between right and left arms.) *Note: At the end of the cheer, throw up your D64 hand sign! And scream “64” loudly to show your divisional spirit.

THANK YOU FOR READING! Hey Key Clubbers, This is me signing out as your 2014-2015 Lieutenant Governor. It’s been an incredible honor to serve all of you over the past year. Be sure to give Daniela, the incoming 2015-2016 Lieutenant Governor, the warm welcome and wonderful support you gave me during my term. Keep following your dreams and “burn like a candle in the night.”
