IDCCC Carnival Last Friday, volunteers helped out at the community center’s Halloween Carnival by setting and cleaning up, and running games for the kids. Here are some photos from the event!
MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR Dear Key Clubbers, I hope you’re enjoying Key Club so far! Did any of you go to the DCM? If not, I hope you’ll attend the next one. On Friday, I volunteered at the Halloween Carnival and I definitely had a lot of fun and met some great people...and the candy was nice too. Dues are now $17, and to make things easier for Emily, PLEASE pay them ASAP and register your information with Angel. The absolute deadline is on November 27th! You definitely don’t want to miss out on a year of service, fun, and cool events because you procrastinated and didn’t turn in your dues. I hope you enjoy Halloween, and remember to collect money in the Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF boxes. Instagram or Tweet your (appropriate) Halloween costume with hashtag #pnwkeyclub! You could be featured on the PNW website or their IG account! -Reanne Wong
As a preferred charity, Kiwanis and Key Club International supports the efforts of UNICEF’s yearly Trick-or-Treat fundraiser. Donations collected from boxes will go towards Kiwanis International’s Eliminate Project to eliminate maternal/neonatal tetanus. One dose of vaccine to protect a mother and all her future babies costs only US $1.80, so everything, even a little spare change, helps!
Here’s how you can help: 1.) Pick up an orange box during the meeting or from an officer 2.) Ask for spare change and donations when you trick-or-treat 3.) Turn in your box (with your name on it) as soon as possible!
