a note from your LTG
Hey 3W! We are completely into the hot, hot, hot Texas heat. I hope y'all have been able to cool down indoors with breeze of the AC or in a icy cold pool or with a cold glass of your choice of drink. Regardless, don't let the heat and other things get in the way of your break and.... KEY CLUB! Wherever you are and whatever you're doing, make sure you're representing Key Club in the best way, following the motto "Caring Our Way of Life". You can open a door for someone, help someone with directions, etc. Just keep that servant leader mind alive! Yours in Service, Rosie Park

YOF
g r a n t ?
The Youth Opportunities Fund (YOF) is an endowed fund of the Kiwanis Children’s Fund which provides grants to Key Club and Key Club members for scholarships and service opportunities. YOF grants can help you take action. Look around and identify service that needs to be done in your school, community or the world. Then apply for a grant.
More Info YOF grants are only given to Key Clubs and/or individual club members. Grants are not given to divisions or districts. Grant amounts between US$100 to US$2,000 may be requested.

TO COMBAT 9
Take a look at Key Club's Major Emphasis Project that are helping to make a difference in communities across the world.
Preferred Charities
Members work together by sponsoring fundraising events and conducting service projects at their local children's hospitals. Contact your local CMN hospital and invite a representative to a club meeting to share ideas and create a partnership.
Since the 1940s, Key Clubs have worked with March of Dimes to make a positive impact in the lives of babies everywhere. Today, Kiwanis members continue that culture of service by supporting the March of Dimes all year long by hosting service projects, raising funds and educating communities about the crisis of preterm birth
UNICEF helps to provide for children’s needs in more than 150 developing countries through community-based services in primary health care, basic education and safe water and sanitation.
