Lieutenant Governor ———Greetings ———

Happy November! I hope you have

adjusted well into the school year

by now. By now, I have been to al-

most all of the club meetings and

I’m really glad to see how well we

are doing this year! November is the

prime to grow together as not only

a club, but as a division. Key Club

week falls on the first week of No-

vember, which is a great time to

promote the club and get more people to join. This month, I hope that

our division increases not only in membership, but also in service hours.

The more members we have, the more community service that is done. I

encourage you to get a friend to join Key Club this month and help

make the world a better place! November is one of my favorite months,

not only because my birthday is on Nov. 1, but also because of the ser-

vice opportunities available this month. Keep

volunteering, keep being great, and lets

make November a productive and fun

month!

In Love and Service,

Christon Senekham

Meet the Divisional —Merchandise Coordinator —

Name: Tasmia Ahmed

School: Westview

Grade: Junior (11th)

My name is Tasmia Ahmed and I am a junior. Cur-

rently I am the vice president at Westview Key Club. I am

both honored and overjoyed to serve as your merchan-

dise coordinator for Division 65. When I joined Key Club as

a naive freshman, I did not expect to build the close rela-

tionship I have developed with our division today. I re-

member the positive energy from my first Key Club meet-

ing at Westview High School- it was contagious and I

couldn’t help but fall in love. Key Club epitomizes the

change. With enough inspiration, we are able to accomplish anything we put our hearts

toward and I couldn’t have been more proud of my division!

This year, Division 65 will represent Key Club at a whole new level! Our members will

have the opportunity to show off a divisional t-shirt. This t-shirt will not only represent your

individual high school but Division 65 as a whole. I have worked closely with Christon and

we are ecstatic to share the success of our t-shirt design which wouldn’t have been pos-

sible without the enthusiasm and support of our division. Thank you to everyone who par-

ticipated in the Division 65 T-shirt design contest last month! This process would not have

been possible without your everlasting love for Division 65. Thank you to all the club

members, officers, and even alumni who took the time to share their t-shirt design with

the rest of us. In the end, we searched for a design that stood out; one that expressed

the importance of Key Club. With the help of your votes, the official Division 65 t-shirt

came down to Bailey Volchok and Christon’s collaborated t-shirt design. For just $6, you

can order your t-shirt today! This is a deal you don’t want to miss out on. I cannot wait to

rock my Division 65 t-shirt at service projects! How about you? :)

A word from Bailey Volchok

My name is Bailey Volchok and

I'm a sophomore at Westview

High School. Being given the op-

portunities to help our community

is one if my favorite aspects if Key

Club. Creating a design for the

Divisional T shirt allowed me to

participate and be artistic, which

was great because art is my pas-

sion. It truly was a win-win situa-

tion and I enjoy contributing to

my fellow Key Clubbers.

CLUB SPOTLIGHT - WESTVIEW

weixiao (wei • shao): v. to smile

“Wei Xiao” means “smile” in Chinese.

Cleft lip and palate is one of the most com-mon birth anomalies in the world.

Approximately 1 in every 700 babies is

born with a cleft in North America…

Clefts are a major problem in developing countries where there are still millions of children who are suffering with unre-paired clefts. The cleft’s causes are unknown. This congenital condition happens in the first three months of pregnancy when the sides of the lip and the roof of the mouth do not fuse together as they should.

Children with cleft lips face a multitude of chal-lenges:

-Feeding difficulty: unable to suck properly because roof of mouth is not formed completely. Food can easily come out of the nose.

-Ear infections and hearing loss: opening of roof of the mouth and lip causes decreased muscle function, which can lead to delay in speech or abnormal speech.

-Dental problems: teeth may not erupt normally and orthodon-tic treatment is usually required.

-Cosmetic abnormality: the child may be treated as an out-cast. No one should ever experience that.

Fortunately, cleft lip and palate is treatable through a series of surgeries and therapies.

…But in countries such as India and Peru, the cleft

occurs 1 in every 500 births.

With just a movement of 13 muscles,

you can make someone’s day. A smile is

a welcoming gesture. It is kind, warm,

and genuine. A smile uplifts our own

mood and others as well.

While the vast majority of those who

live in the developed world are treated

and lead normal lives, millions of children

and adults in developing countries suffer

from unrepaired clefts. Many are aban-

doned shortly after birth or kept hidden

away from society. Most find it difficult

to attend school, communicate easily,

find jobs or get married.

The WeiXiao Project’s goal is to

raise $1000; enough to give four

children the smile that they de-

serve.

Page 15: Division 65 || November 2013 Newsletter

This however, is just one story in the context of a privi-leged American. My problem dwarfs in comparison to what others have to face. When I heard the news of a family member having a cleft, I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know what to do, and I did nothing. Three years later, I have finally realized what I could contrib-ute. If I didn’t do anything be-forehand, I can still do some-thing right now. If you asked me what was the most attractive feature of a person, I would say a smile. I chose this because I truly believe that a smile is one of the most beautiful accesso-ries a person can wear. It is be-cause of this reason, and an-other, that I have chosen to conduct this fundraiser.

My name is Cindy Chou, and I am a junior at W e s t v i e w High School ( P o r t l a n d , OR). I was a member of Key Club in f r e s h m a n

year, and then continued to ad-vance to become Sophomore Representative in sophomore year, and now Treasurer for jun-ior year. Recently, I have joined the National Honor Society, where scholarship and service is strongly upheld. Key Club has introduced me to the world of service and volunteerism. Whether it is cleaning up our community or reaching out to children and the elderly, the work I have done in the past two

years taught me that someone out there needs help; I shall do what I can to tend to their needs; in this, we all can grow and prosper.

In fifth grade, I received braces, beginning my two-year long journey to the perfect set of teeth. My previous set was crooked, the bottom incisors patterned in an up-down fash-ion. Despite the pain when the orthodontist tightened my braces, I did not hate becom-ing a “brace face.” With the joy of changing the colors every month, I looked forward to the day when I would be able to flash the brilliant array of my pearly whites. In seventh grade, I was finally able to take my braces off. I was proud to show off my newly straightened ivo-ries.

Cindy’s Story

Evelyn’s Story

Three years ago, my cousin Susan got married. Soon, she and her husband had a child: a beautiful baby girl named Evelyn. Weddings are expensive. So is surgery. Evelyn was born with a cleft palate. At such a young age, she has undergone many surgeries. The sheer cost of the medical bills and the stress can be extremely difficult to tackle on. Yet, my cousin and her family made it through. Evelyn made it through.

Fortunate as we are in a developed country, we are able to receive complete treatment much easier than those living in undeveloped na-

tions. Some children receive poor quality surgery. Some receive proper surgery, but no follow-up or specialized care. Some have no treatment or support at all.

Everyone deserves a chance to give his/her best smile. The grin could lift up someone else’s world. With your help, we can reach our mone-tary goal of $1000, or four smiles.

The WeiXiao Project is in honor of Evelyn.

Maternal/Neonatal Tetanus (MNT) is

a deadly disease that causes painful con-

vulsions and extreme sensitivity to light

and touch for newly born babies birthed

in unsanitary conditions. This disease is

contracted when a pregnant women

comes in contact with Tetanus spores

from the ground or from unclean tools

used during the birthing process. The

slightest touch by an infants mother will

cause inconsolable pain and in less than

a week, the baby will die from Tetanus’

painful symptoms. In the course of a year,

60,000 babies will die from this easily prev-

entable disease.

So far, with the help of UNICEF and

Kiwanis, 33 countries have been vacci-

nated from MNT, though it still remains a

deadly threat in 26 countries. In order to

ELIMINATE Maternal/Neonatal Tetanus for

good, more than 100 million mothers and

babies must be immunized, costing an es-

timated $110 million USD. Our goal is to rid

the world of Maternal/Neonatal Tetanus

by 2015. With the help of the entire K-

family, we will be able to put an end to

Tetanus related deaths.

DIVISION COUNCIL MEETING Divisional Council Meetings is a gathering of Key Clubbers from all over the

Division. At DCMs, Key Clubbers get to hear what other clubs are doing,

and exchange ideas and information, It is also great time to meet new

friends and grow closer as a division, while having fun.

After a very cold President

Council Meeting, Key Clubbers

migrated over to Southminster

Presbyterian Church to carve

pumpkins for a local special

needs center near Century High

School. Key Clubbers donated

their own pumpkins and carved

over 20 pumpkins to decorate the

local center. This small service

project brought much joy to the

staff and residents when a key

clubbers dropped the pumpkins

off.

month as well as plan for future divisional events. It is highly encour-

aged that all officers attend as well as those interested in running

for higher position.

Divisional Council Meetings are meetings held every month at-

tended by all Key Club members. Divisional Councils are always a

lot of fun and consist of activities and games that are aimed to get

create bonds between Key Clubbers from the different schools in

the division. Sometimes, the DCMs will consist of a service project.

Each year, 15 million babies are born too

soon. Premature birth kills 1 baby every 30

seconds. There is a HUGE survival gap in

surviving from premature birth. In high in-

come countries, only 10% of premature

babies will die, where as in low-income

countries, 90% will die from the complica-

tions resulting from premature birth. Pre-

mature birth is the highest cause of death

in babies. More babies die as a result of

being born too soon than AIDS, Malaria

and diarrhea. More than 75% of deaths

can be prevented even without intensive

care. Simple things like good hygiene, pro-

tection and nutrition might are not always

a given. In low income countries, hygiene

and good nutrition is difficult to come by.

Even the most simple steroid shot for a

baby, costing only a dollar, may not be

available in certain areas of the world. In

order to prevent such deaths, it is crucial

for us to spread awareness and raise funds.

HOW DO YOU

DUE? What are dues? How much are

they? How do I turn them in?

Where do my dues go? What is

District Derby? Read here to

know everything you need to

know about District Dues!

Q. How much are dues?

$12 Out of the $12 paid, $5.50 goes to the District and $6.50 goes to International. If a club decides to charge more than $12, usually the extra amount will go towards club funds to pay for T-shirts or sup-plies or charity, depending on the what the club board decides to use the extra dues for.

Once dues are paid, the dues are allocated between the dis-trict and International level to cover costs such as member-ship cards, forms, the Key Club magazine, convention costs, and the Major Emphasis Pro-jects.

In order for Key Club to be as successful as it is, dues pay-ments help cover the costs needed to keep Key Club Inter-national up and running as the largest student-led volunteer or-ganization.

All dues should be submitted through the Membership Up-date Center (MUC for short.) This can be accessed through the Key Club website. Your fac-ulty advisor should have the login email and password for your club’s account. From then on, the club Treasurer and Sec-retary should be working closely together to document who has paid their dues. Once a mem-ber pays, the secretary can up-date the MUC with new mem-ber information. Once all dues have been turned in, an invoice can be printed and sent along with a check to Kiwanis Interna-tional. A faster option would be to pay through credit card, if applicable.

If you are not able to access the MUC, please contact your Lieutenant Governor, or email Kiwanis International at [email protected]

District Derby is a District-wide dues completion. Dues submis-sion determines seating at Dis-trict Convention. Be sure to pay your dues, because your divi-sion is counting on you to get good seats at DCON!
