Preferred Charities
UNICEF helps improve the
health and education of children
and mothers in developing
countries. The Trick-or-Treat for
UNICEF alone has contributed to
over $167 million dollars to date!
March of Dimes is a non-
profit organization that
works to prevent birth
defects and improve the
health of mothers and their
babies.
Children’s Miracle Network is pretty much what it sounds like. They
are a non-profit organization whose mission is to raise money to
support children hospitals, medical research, and spread awareness
of children’s health issues.
A Word from your Lt. Governor!
Hey guys,
Welcome back to school! I hope you all are having a
fantabulous time getting things ready for your first Key Club
meeting. Remember to keep recruiting people so our clubs
grow. DUES ARE DUE BY NOVEMBER 1st so pay as soon as
possible. Treasurers, if you have any questions about how to
work the membership update center, let me know!
If any of you are curious, the August DCM/BBQ went
well! We got people from Bremerton, Kingston, Olympic, and
South Kitsap clubs to come out. Rain or shine, it was pretty
fun! Hopefully it won’t rain next time. As a reminder to other
clubs, SEND AT LEAST ONE REPRESENTATIVE TO MY DCMs. I
cannot stress that enough.
Well, keep reading for more information on what
happened in this division during the month of August!
With Love,
Amy Liu
