The Jonathan Law Key Club meets in the Senior Cafe on Thursdays at 6 p.m. to discuss future events.
KeyCclub is an organization that helps the community by volunteering, cleaning up parks, collecting clothing, and arranging food drives. They are currently volunteering in Salvation Army and Trick or Treat for UNICEF.
¨This year for Key Club we hope to get back to as normal as possible and be able to reinstate our normal activities like trick or treat for UNICEF and Salvation Army,” junior Key Club President Caroline Doyle said.
Key Cub improves leadership skills by organizing meetings, planning projects, and serving in positions of leadership at the club, district, and international levels.
¨Key club has impacted my understanding of leadership and responsibility,” junior Vice President Hanna Keating said. “Key club has been an amazing opportunity to serve my community, since I became a part of key club I have had a strive to do more for my community.”
The first Key Club meeting of the year had over 70 people. Club officers and President Doyle are all very excited for this upcoming year and to teach the many new members.
¨I’m most excited to get back to our normal volunteer activities and having meetings. We have a great group this year and I’m excited to see where we can take it,” Doyle said.
Members said Key Club is a positive and pleasurable experience for all. Everyone should get involved in their community since it can help them gain new skills and friends.
“I joined Key Club freshman year because I wanted to get involved in the school community,” Junior Officer Maya Rosa said. “In the club I was able to get volunteer hours for graduation while also being able to represent our school in a positive way.”
Through Key Club, students can participate in a variety of service activities. This also contributes to volunteer hours.
“I am most excited to see all the new members start volunteering and seeing what we can accomplish as an even bigger club,” Rosa said.
Overall, the Key Club is well on its way to another productive year of assisting many people not just at Jonathan Law but also in the Milford community.
