Hey Lions!
Welcome to 2015. 2014 was very eventful and full
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
be out of this world Let’s hope this new year brings us happiness, service, and new beginnings!

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.).

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.
