CLUB SPOTLIGHT
GOVERNOR UPDATE
Glen A. Wilson High
School, Goldstone
Division President: Olivia Tang
Glen A. Wilson High School,
embodying our Major Emphasis,
LIVE2LEARN, went to Maryvale
Orphanage to read to and do
crafts with the children there. They
donated books with the help of
their Kiwanis club and gifted the
kids with colored pencils, their own
book, and candy.
GAWHS also planned their own
service project at Schabarum Park to
repaint park benches and tables and
sold spam masubi at their latest DCM
Food-raiser
Hello Presidents!
As many of us are back in school, I
would just like to wish everyone a
great year! Don’t forget to prioritize
school, your family, and of course,
KIWIN’S.
This past month, I had the opportunity
attend the Kiwanis DCON with
Nicolette, Jade LTG, and Carolyn, K
Fam and Foundation Chair, to
represent KIWIN’S. President Kay-Kay
and some of the members from
Hercules even came up to
Sacramento to help out (pictured
above)!
Furthermore, as we move into the new
school year and as Fall Rally
approaches, I need all of you
presidents to be taking the time to
educate your members and about all
the exciting things that we have to
offer. Get to know your members and
give them the true ohana feeling.
Let’s have a great school year y’all!
Much Love.
Jade

NEW MONTHLY PRESIDENT CHALLENGE What’s the monthly challenge?
The monthly challenge is a way for the presidents to be pushing and
challenging themselves each month to be the best president possible. The
challenges will likely correlate with a theme every month i.e. October’s
challenge will center around trick-or-treat for Unicef (*Hint: order your boxes if
you haven’t done so already)
How can you participate?
1. Take a picture of you completing the challenge.
2. Post it on Facebook and Instagram. Write a brief caption about what you
learned from the challenge or how it helped you be a better president. Then
hashtag it with #{Insert month here}kiwinspresidentchallenge
3. I will look through all the posts and choose one president each month to win
a special prize. It will be chosen based on the quality of the picture and the
caption.
**Entries will be valid from the 1st of the month to the last day of the month
What’s this month’s challenge?
This month school is just starting, club rushes are happening, and a lot of new
members are joining. It can be really intimidating for new members, so this
month I challenge the presidents to greet the members at the door of your first
meeting. If you already had your first meeting then you can still do it at your
next meeting. If you will not have your first meeting by the end of Septembers,
then you can participate by greeting potential members during your club rush.
This month, hashtag your pictures with #septemberkiwinspresident challenge.
This month’s prize will be a Unicef drawstring bag and pen!

Things you need to do for
Others
1. Lead by Example
o Be professional! Don’t ever
use cuss words or derogatory
terms at an event or meeting,
and make sure your members
don’t either.
o Dress for the occasion.
o Make sure you address adults
respectfully in person and in
emails.
o Don’t ever ask anything of
members that you wouldn’t
be willing to do yourself.
o Know KIWIN’S like the back of
your hand, your members
shouldn’t have more
knowledge than you do.
o You are the icons of KIWIN’S
for your campus, start acting
like a servant leader otherwise
people wont respect you.
2. Make people feel
welcomed
o Do your best to make sure
your members knows you
care about them inside and
outside of KIWIN’S. .
o Find the line between being a
friend and a leader, you
should never be afraid to give
any member ‘consequences’
if they are acting out
o Never ever be “cliquey” with
your cabinet make sure all
your members feel
comfortable being around
you or talking to you, they
shouldn’t feel intimidated.
3. Remind people of their
purpose in KIWIN’S….or not
o Its easy to get caught up in
having a title, but remind
people and yourself daily
why you or them are in
KIWIN’S in the first place.
o If you keep in mind the real
purpose of KIWIN’S (service),
then everything will follow
o Please try your best to refrain
from interboard dating
4. Show you’re human
o You and I make mistakes
just like everyone else, and
it’s okay to do so. No one
expect you to be perfect. If
anything, it will make you
more relatable to members
o Never tell a member they
can’t know something just
because their a member.
Be as transparent as
possible.
5. Keep it drama free
o Yes, you are still in high
school, but guess what
you’re a servant leader too.
This means no DRAMA.
o Don’t bring your bad
attitude or negativity to a
meeting or an event EVER
because your members will
know and it’ll make them
uncomfortable.
o If you feel as if you cannot
control your emotions at all;
communicate with your
board so they can take
over.
How to be a leader: Part 2 Last month, I went over what you need to do for yourself and this moth will be going over
things you need to for others

Live2Learn
What is Live2Learn?
Realizing the need and
interest in supporting the
Major Emphasis Program
through hands on service, a
new service initiative will be
created on a two-year basis.
All of the hands on service
provided to children by Key
Club International members
can be directed to a single area
of need to make a substantial
impact. This service initiative
directs and focuses the
attention of KIWIN'S members to
serve children in a specific
hands-on approach.
What can we do?
KIWIN'S members currently focus
their time and talents on
Live2Learn, specifically focused
on 5-9 year old
youth, with the
main goals of
promoting
education and
building literary
skills. This program
not only creates
endless
possibilities to
strengthen the
common goal of
service, but also
allows each
KIWIN'S member
to develop into a
well-rounded
individual
community leader and lifelong
advocate for children's
education.
Pediatric Trauma
Program (PTP)
What is PTP?
Pediatric Trauma affects
children from infancy to age 18.
It is a result of motor vehicle
accidents, physical abuse,
drowning accidents, falls, and
animal bites, making it the
leading cause of death of
children in the United States.
Every year it results in sixteen
million emergency visits and
twenty thousand deaths. To
prevent these accidents and
injuries from happening, KIWIN'S
has focused on fighting Pediatric
Trauma through raising funds
and by increasing awareness
through education. Established
in 1992, Pediatric Trauma
Prevention is a main focus of
KIWIN'S in conjunction with
California-Nevada-Hawaii
Kiwanis.
What can we do?
Established in 1992, Pediatric
Trauma Program, our Minor
Emphasis, is a main focus of
KIWIN'S in conjunction with Cal-
Nev-Ha Kiwanis. Pediatric
Trauma affects children from
infancy to age nineteen. It is a
result of motor vehicle
accidents, physical abuse,
drowning accidents, falls, and
animal bites, making it the
leading cause of death of
children in the United States.
Every year it results in sixteen
million emergency visits and
twenty thousand deaths. To

PRESIDENT FEATURE OF THE MONTH
Olivia Tang
Glen A. Wilson Goldstone
Since this month out sponsoring Kiwanis club did not have many events going on, we tried to plan a service project for Saturday of the month but we ddn't plan one for the weekend of Kiwanis Dcon August 15. So far we have contacted our local Senior Center to see if there were any volunteer opportunities but we were informed that in order to volunteer we had to have the necessary medical clearance and proper volunteer training, so we were not able to proceed. We tried to plan a couple of projects for Live2Learn by contacting out local library and a nearby Orphanage. We also contacted our local library to see if we could go in and tutor children once school started, but they do not accept volunteers until September. We have also looked into volunteering for Maryvale Orphanage in Rosemead, where we would spend a day with the children and do activities such as arts and crafts, play games, and read to them. They just approved this event, so we will go in on August 29th at 10AM-12AM. We will be working with children from ages 6-10 and since the orphanage splits their children by gender, we will split into two groups to spend time with the children (these groups do not have to be gender specific). We have emailed our local Aktion Club to see when they start meeting again so we can go in and do a service project with them, but so far have not heard back yet. We planned a service project like the one we did in June where our members would go in and help repaint the vandalized and tarnished picnic tables at our local park. We will be repainting picnic tables for the park on August 8th from 8-11AM. We do not have anything for August 22nd because that is the date of the Region 13 beach clean up and we will most likely not have an advisor to supervise any events that we plan for that day.
This past month we have launched two merchandise fundraisers. Our first fundraiser was launched on July 21st, it was a KIWIN'S Lanyard fundraiser. Lanyards were black and gray with the KIWIN'S and Key Club logo as well as the KIWIN'S mission statement on them. Our club is selling them for $6 presale until October 25, and $7 after. We have created a Google Form for everyone who wants to order a lanyard: http://goo.gl/forms/cN8svJ94uR. We have filled in the merchandise form and sent in a picture for it to be featured in the District newsletter. The profit from this sale will go to PTP. On August 1st, we launched our KIWIN'S Crewneck fundraiser. We are ordering crewnecks based on the preorders we get. The preorder form is linked here: http://goo.gl/forms/T2zCTwdGIs. We are selling them for $22 preorder until October 25th, and $27 after that. The proceeds will be split between Eliminate and PTP. Our club treasurer had also scheduled a Panera fundraiser at our local Panera Bread for some time second semester and is working on other fundraising ideas. We are also looking into doing a fundraiser at school where we sell boba but we need to ask ASB if clubs are allowed to hold school fundraisers before club rush because we haven't has any ICC meetings yet and I know that clubs at our school are not allowed to hold club meetings until after club rush, which will probably be sometime in September.
