Jada Knight
Rancho Dominguez Key Club
"Jada should be member of the month because she has grew a lot throughout the term. She has been consistently going to DCMs even though she’s a new member and was very shy at first. She has volunteered at many events as well. Although it’s her first year in key club, I acknowledge her courage, eagerness, and ability to be involved in so many events and socials."
Vyanh Tran
Gahr Historian
"This person deserves this award because she has so much dedication to her club and to her division. Though there were some ups and downs with her position she took action and reflected on what could’ve been better. With her dedication she was able to become stronger and become a better leader. And also she is in the process of making and publishing an upcoming fundraiser for her club."
"This club has showed up to many of the division events and fundraisers throughout January. They plan on working with community service programs such as, K-Kids on making cards for the veterans serving in the military, making blankets for the homeless, and helping elementary students cross the streets. With a passion for key club, they continue to serve the division at a high level. Hopefully we’ll see them at our upcoming events and see who our next Lieutenant Governor for the 2019-2020 term!"
Box of Joy
St. Joseph Key Club

In total the club was able to collect over 50 items!"
Kian Cabahug

Daniel Le
Bellflower Webmaster
"Daniel’s passion, commitment, and dedication is very evident in the work that he does for our club. As webmaster, he has taken his position to new heights. He is continuously creating new graphics for club service announcements (club rush announcements, first meeting graphics, rtc graphics), effortlessly managing our Bellflower Key Club instagram page, updating it constantly with the latest key club info, and has taken it upon himself to redesign our club website. When our Historian is unable to submit articles or visuals, Daniel is always there to get the job done. Thanks to him, our club is able to reach the amount of people we have reached this term and I am very thankful to have a passionate leader in my club. Above all, he is always there to assist me with help that I need and overall has shined well this month.
"Bellflower Key Club has done so much at the division level when it comes to serving their communities at divisional service events and also attending our latest social event, the D13 Newbie Social! They brought lots of new potential key club members where they learned a lot more about Key Club while bonding with new people. The club’s strong officer board has done an amazing job at recruiting new members ever since the start of the term and I can’t wait to see what they’ll do in the future!"
Lynda Howard
McBride Key Club
"Lynda has been one of the most active members in McBride Key Club. She shows up to event after event and she even helped promote the club to the school. Her participation also continues during the summer, where participation tends to be lacking. This is also astonishing as she is one of the newer members of the club and clearly deserves this award."
Neha Patel
Poly President
"I believe Neha deserves this award because she goes above and beyond for her club. Not only does she communicate well with her board and club, but she also emphasizes the importance of inclusiveness. She is constantly working on new ideas that will help benefit both her club and division and shows great leadership skills. She is truly amazing at what she does and does it all with a smile on her face despite her busy schedule."
"This club showed lots of progress for not only the past month, but the whole term. You’ll always catch one of their officers or members at a service event and even fundraisers to better serve their communities. They have so many ideas for the upcoming school year and there’s no doubt that it belongs to Rancho Dominguez!"

VBS Decorating Event
Gahr Key Club
"This club volunteered at the Vietnamese Alliance Church of Orange for their Vacation Bible School for the Youth Group. The members designed and decorated the rooms and halls for 3 days. Overall it was a great experience for the members because they had fun decorating the rooms for the kids and since they did an amazing job of decorating the rooms the church invited them to volunteer at their future events!"
Sun Sun Lin
Wilson Key Club
"I believe she deserves this award because she always aides us whenever we’re troubled, stuck, or have an idea to help our club. She always stays in touch with our key club and occasionally comes to the meetings although it’s a school day! For example, our club had wished to throw a bonfire and as we told her and asked for help, she didn’t hesitate to assist us plan this wonderful bonfire we had! We honestly couldn’t do much without her!"
- JUNE 2018 -
Jenni Heng

McBride Key Club
"Paloma managed to strike a major deal by getting kabobs from her father’s restaurant and we plan on selling the kabobs for our fundraiser. She was also very instrumental in planning our booth."
Chizaram Iwuanyanwu
Bellflower Vice President
"Right off the bat, Chizaram was one of the officers that jumped up and took initiative the first day the cabinet met to discuss our club goals and overall what we, as a club, wanted to accomplish for the term. Within the first days, she went far above my expectations when she volunteered to help out our historian in creating multiple online and physical flyers to promote our upcoming Blood Drive , posting these flyers all around campus and on various social media platforms. In addition to this, she has not let her personal life and academics interfere with her duties as vice president, such as not missing a single day to promote our blood drive booth during lunch. Overall, I believe that she has excelled well this month and I can't wait to see what experience she will bring to the club and what she'll accomplish as our vice president!"
"Millikan Key Club deserves this award because they're a club I have not missed at all at an event! Their club works well with division together and show constant positivity wherever they go."
