Information By the Member Relations Committee and Policy, International, & Elections Committee

YOF The Member Relations Committee would like to encourage your club to apply for the YOF grant! What is the YOF grant? YOF is an acronym for Youth Opportunities Fund. The fund gives Key Clubs grants to be used for service projects that aid the home, school, or community. The money from this grant comes from the yearly dues that a member pays. Use this money that you have already contributed and perform service. TAKE ACTION! The possibilities are endless: conquer poverty or literacy throughout the world. Discuss this with your club and send your applications in by October 15th. Details can be found in the following web address. http:// keyclub.org/service/yof/ yofgrant.aspx

Policies and Elections Subcommittees: The Policies Subcommittee is working alongside with the Elections Subcommittee to produce a tutorial in regards to How to Effectively hold a Club‘s Election day and how to utilize Agreement to Serve Forms (ASFs). This will include proper voting etiquette, the importance of a quorum, etc. The resource booklet on how to Read and Interpret the District Bylaws and Policies will be posted and sent to the officer‘s reflector when completed! In addition to, the resource booklets on How to Run for a Club Office and Lieutenant Governor as well as a District Executive or District Committee Chair position will be paired with how to run to be a member of the Key Club International Board, so stay tuned! International Subcommittee: The International Subcommittee is currently working on a resource PowerPoint outlining key details of our International Organization, including the motto, Key Club structure, the pledge, and much more! Do not forget to raise awareness on major International Major Emphasis Programs such as Project EliMiNaTe and Trick or Treat for UNICEF, which can be a great substitute for receiving candy, to collect coins to give back to the people in Africa who are afflicted with disease and other traumatizing things. A newsletter will also be posted onto the CyberKey shortly on similar details for easier viewing.
