In my free time I love listening to music, watching movies, reading and journaling. It is my honor to serve as the Lieutenant Governor of Division Seven for the Key Club year 2022 2023.

Hey, key clubbers!

LG Audine here, I hope you are all well. As we enter the new Academic Year and key Club year let us take time to reflect on how we can be better people. We should all evaluate ourselves and our lives so that we can all be able to carry out more meaningful service and overall become more serviceable individuals. During the school year, I also will encourage you to prioritize your mental health as I'm sure we all know the phrase "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." so during this year remember to have fun no matter how hard things are and always remember our motto ,"Caring our way of life "

Hi! My name is Kashish Kirpalani, I attend the St.Hilda’s Diocesan High School and I am the lieutenant governor for Division four. Though I was appointed this position late in August, I have made it my utmost duty to reactivate the dormant clubs in my division and ensure all presidents are aware of their responsibilities. I have managed to reactivate two clubs and I am currently working on four. For the upcoming academic term, I have seven schools in mind that I would like to activate clubs in. It has been my pleasure working towards these goals and it would not have been possible without the help from the district

From the District Administrator

Let me take this opportunity to congratulate the District Bulletin Editor Narjah James for compiling this Xaymaca Key. Also to public acknowledge the hard work done by the Governor Khijani Willaims and members of the Key Club Jamaica District Board. Key Club members of the Jamaica District have made it very clear that we are coming out of COVID 19 stronger. The fact that clubs have decided to do more meaningful projects and have been motivated to grow membership means key club in 2022 2023 will be stronger.

Key Clubs across the island have answered the clarion call and joined the Dues Derby to make the district grow. The district is at 2500 members in 52 clubs and this is out of the 91 clubs that make up the district. If we continue on this path we can definitely reach 6000 members When we achieve this then we are a force to reckon with Clubs are encouraged to do projects at the parish and branch libraries across the island as we seek to get members to use the libraries and get community service projects as well. If each club donate boos to the public library system this could have a great impact on the education of our nation. We also seek to get members to come board in the new school term with our blood drive If we get key club associated with blood drives and do this regularly this also will impact on our nation. Key Clubs need to interact and the recent church service and mass meeting showed that the members yearn for the days we had more projects and interclub done. Key Club is back and we shall be doing more.
