of stress, let’s welcome the new year to new

beginnings and SERVICE! There are so many

things to look forward to in the year of 2015. New

Officers, Lieutenant Governor Election Rally,

District Convention, and Seattle Rally 2015! I can’t

wait to see all my senior Key Club lions graduate

this year and sending them off to college as well.

Don’t forget to register for the most amazing

event of the year, District Convention. I heard it’ll

Happy 2015, Pacific-Northwest!

I’m so glad that we have finally made it. After a swamped first

semester of school, a myriad of Key Club events, and a relaxing

holiday vacation, I’m sure you all are so excited to welcome in the

New Year. A lot of people see this this month as a time of resolutions.

However, I think it can better be characterized as a time to reflect and

look forward to the future. What awesome things have you all done so

far with your time in Key Club? How will you make the most of the rest

of this year?

Thus far, I have seen Key Clubbers do some spectacular things. Shout

out to Tasmia Ahmed and her division for collecting 70 gift cards for

sex trafficked survivors in Portland. Shout out to the Communications

Committee for completely renovating the face of the Pacific-Northwest

district website. Shout out to Kevin Zhang for bringing the “bowl” to

#palabowlo. These Key Clubbers have inspired us to do great things.

What’s even more exciting is that there’s still so much to come.

Whether it’s participating in “Service to Infinity and Beyond” at the

2015 District Convention or finally reaching our goal for The Eliminate

Project, the coming months have much in store. Don’t feel the need to

make new resolutions; your passion for service, leadership, and

camaraderie will naturally take the district to new heights this 2015.

In terms of the international level, there are several items we can

anticipate together. First of all, 2015 is our year to eliminate

maternal/neonatal tetanus (MNT) from the face of the planet! We’re

taking things to a whole new level. The International Board has its own

personal pen fundraiser (I’m bringing them to DCON!), and if all of Key

Club International can raise an additional $80,000, board members will

be kissing an octopus at our winter board meeting. (Yes, I’m very

scared. But I do it fo’ da Eliminate!)

For clarity, our winter board meeting will be held in Detroit, Michigan,

from January 22 to 25, 2015. The board meeting agenda has already

been posted to the Key Club website. If you have any questions, or if

you’d like me to bring an additional topic to the board, don’t hesitate

to reach out.

Finally, with this year’s International Convention swiftly approaching,

it’s definitely an event we can eagerly look forward to. Held from June

24 to 28, 2015, in Indianapolis, the home of Key Club International

headquarters, this will be an experience you don’t want to miss. As it

is the 100th anniversary of Kiwanis, a lot of our programs will be held in

conjunction with Circle K and Kiwanis members, making for a

whopping estimate of 12,000 attendees. We have some awesome

events planned; we’ll be renting out an entire street of Indianapolis,

Hellogoodbye will be performing, and we’ll be surrounded by tons of

fun things to do (i.e. free museums, bikes to ride around the city,

zoos, etc.).

$1.80 Saves a MOM + BABY

Kiwanis and UNICEF joined forces to tackle iodine deficiency disorders, achieving one of the most significant public health successes of the 20th century. Now, they are eliminating MNT

from the face of the Earth. And in doing so, the project will reach the poorest, most neglected mothers and babies with additional lifesaving health care. The end of this one disease means the beginning of better health for so many families.

Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus. This deadly disease steals the lives of nearly 60,000 innocent babies and a significant number of women each

year. The effects of the disease are excruciating — tiny newborns suffer repeated, painful convulsions

and extreme sensitivity to light and touch.

Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals 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. Find out how you and your club can help CMNH.

UNICEF Since 1994, Key Club has been Trick-or-Treating 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.

March of Dimes 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.

WHAT IS KEY LEADER?

Key Leader is a weekend experiential leadership program for today's young leaders. This life-changing event focuses on service leadership as the first, most meaningful leadership-development experience. A Key Leader will learn the most important lesson of leadership—it comes from helping others succeed.
