GREETINGS
FROM YOUR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR Hi Krakens! Welcome back! For seniors, we’re almost there. For everyone else, just enjoy everything while it lasts. I cannot wait to start doing club visits and I wish everyone the best of luck with their first meetings. Always remember to be inclusive because we want all of the new members to come and feel all of the Key Club love we have to give. I’d like to say that your Presidents are working extremely hard, we just had a very successful PCM to get the year going. I’m very excited to see them all reach their goals. Officers, I have been more relaxed about reports for the summer but with the school year starting up I expect 100% reports to come in on time. Failure to do so means that I, or the other divisional executives, would contact your club advisor. I look forward to seeing everyone at the next DCM at Decatur. It’ll be Division 33’s Got Talent! Everyone should bring a buddy and introduce them to Key Club and each school should be ready to bring an act!! See you soon! In love and Service,
Andrea Diep Division 33 Lieutenant Governor Pacific Northwest District Key Club International p: 253-202-6434 e: andreadiep.ltg33@gmail.com 5

Youth O What is the YOF? The Youth Opportunities Fund (YOF) is an endowed fund for Key Club International held within the Kiwanis International Foundation. It uses earned interest to help Key Clubs and Key Club members serve the world by providing grants for service opportunities. These grants can help you take action. Look around and identify the things that need to get done in your school, community or world.
Why should you apply? Part of your dues go to the YOF. If you have an idea for a service project, but don’t have the funds, the YOF is here for you. Whether it’s an individual, or a club project. Keep in mind the deadline to apply is October 15th so plan ahead. Feel free to contact your LTG if you need help with applying!
