Key Club participates with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals by sponsoring fundraising events. Key Club members also participate in service projects at their local children’s hospital.
For decades, Key Club has partnered with the March of Dimes to give every baby a healthy start. Key Club members raise thousands of dollars annually through various programs, including collecting change, holding dances and taking part in March of Dimes’ signature event, March for Babies. Since 1994, Key Club has been Trick-orTreating for Unicef and over the years has raised nearly US$5 million for iodine deficiency programs worldwide and HIV and AIDS programs in Kenya and Swaziland. Now it’s helping The Eliminate Project.
On the weekend of April 8th - April 10th our division took 14 Key clubbers and 5 Builders club members to kiwanis Leadership camp. This weekend was focused on helping build and prepare servant leaders and meeting new key clubbers on the way. It incorporated many team working activities as well as individual activities. Overall it was a weekend filled with enthusiasm and joy.

Hey PNW District Key Clubbers, I’m Tiffany Wong and am thrilled to be serving you all as your District Secretary. Since stepping into Key Club, I’ve always strived to establish personal connections with each individual. It’s a value that I continue carrying on today, and I hope to provide connection and communication for every secretary. My goals are to recognize secretaries on a monthly basis for their continuous efforts, to share advice and tips for officers, and to provide higher platforms of member input all over the district. Serving as a friend, not as a superior, has always been my focus, and I hope to continue that idea in what I do. I’m excited to work with you as friend who can assist you in any way possible, so please never hesitate to contact me! In Caring and Service, Tiffany Wong District Secretary Key Club International 206.317.9146 tiffanywong.pnwsec@gmail.com

Greetings PNW! I'm Georgia Cato and I am honoured to be serving as your Kiwanis Family Relations Director for the 2016-2017 term. This year is going to be extraordinary. With the Five-Year Plan already in full motion, my goal is to further strengthen the connection between all the branches of Kiwanis. With implementing more interclubs throughout the district, this will create and ensure the strong bond we have with our Kiwanis Family. Above all, you will be able to connect with other Student Leadership Programs who all root themselves with the genuine satisfaction that comes from service. It’s truly a privilege to be working alongside such a dynamic team of individuals. I've already encountered many enthusiastic executives and motivated members, so with this strong team of dynamic Key Clubbers, we can work together to create the best this district has ever seen.

Hello there my fellow PNW District Key Clubbers, Stella Gonzalez is the name and Key Club is my game. Service is something I have always valued over all other traits and I am very excited to serve as your Membership Growth and Reactivation Director for this upcoming year. Even though my title may seem long, convoluted and frivolous I assure you that my job is to help you guys make all of your jobs easier. My role will be to help charter new clubs, reactivate suspended or inactive clubs, and to generally oversee the growth of our very own Key Club family. Yes, I have a goal in mind to the amount of key clubbers I would like our district to achieve this year; but what is more important to me are the kind of people and personality traits we are adding into our district. The words you will hear from me a lot are -”quality over quantity” and that is a personal philosophy of mine that I think will apply well into the PNW District. I am so happy for this opportunity and extend the invitation for anyone to reach out to me if you have any ideas, concerns, input, etc. you would like to be heard. Call me, beep me, if you wanna reach me. With Love and Service, Stella Gonzalez PNW District Membership Growth and Reactivation Director Key Club International (425)499-9156 stella.pnwdistrict@gmail.com

“My favorite key club moment was during Special Olympics. I was having a bad day because I had lost a tennis match due to an injury. After the tennis match I went to go help with Special Olympics. I arrived feeling sad and gloomy, radiating negative vibes in the atmosphere. I saw the Special Olympians practice and they were all filled with positivity and joy even though they were limited on their athleticism. They helped change my attitude and made me feel filled with joy once again. They also made me understand that the only disability in life is a bad attitude.�
