Relay For Life!

 
Hey Key Clubbers!
One of the upcoming events for the month of June is the Relay for Life event! Relay for life is an overnight community fundraising walk that aims to raise money for the fight against cancer. There will be food, games, and plenty of other activities at this event. It is an opportunity for communities to honor cancer survivors, commemorate loved ones lost to cancer, and fight against the disease. At this event, we would be assisting with set-up by putting up signs, decorations, and setting tables and tents. We would also put together gift bags for the Survivor Ceremony and assist with the distribution of bags for Luminaria. These bags contain a candle and is personalized with a name, photo, and message to honor someone affected by cancer. These candles represent a person and when it gets dark, these candles would be lit.

AIDS Walk 2016

Hey Guys,

One of the many events coming up this May includes the AIDS Walk! For those of you that went last year, we all know how tiring but great that walk was. This year we've decided to volunteer at the walk rather than actually participate in the walk. The AIDS Walk will be taking place on Sunday, May 15th, 2016. We will be working in two shifts, one from 7 am to 12 pm and the second shift is from 11 am to 4 pm. We would be volunteering at Checkpoint 4 where we would help set up, manage, and clean checkpoint 4 as well as distribute snacks and beverages to the walkers. Additionally, we would help direct walkers to services such as restrooms and first aid. If you would like to participate in this event, you can sign up here: AIDS Walk Form. You can apply to either of the shifts or both, depending on your preference. If you guys have any additional questions/comments feel free to ask them in the Google form or contact one of the officers through email/Facebook/in person or email our club's email. Also, feel free to leave a comment below!
