NEWSLETTER Issue 08
One Family. One Mission. One Word: KIWIN’S
On January 21st of 2015,
Kiwanis International, which was
found in Detroit, Michigan,
celebrated their 100th year
anniversary. Kiwanis International is
like the parents of Key Club and
KIWIN’S. They provide everything
for the Key Club International in
order for students further their
leadership and communication
skills. Without the help of the
Kiwanis, the K-family would have
never been able to help serve
their community.
Happy
Anniversary
KIWANIS!

Member of the Month Congratulations to
Alvin Lee
Alvin has stood out this month by
showing true qualities of a board member.
He helped out our very own Technology
Chair, Jacob Olson, when he was too busy
with deadlines to make the meeting
presentation. He made a remarkable
presentation that caught the members'
attention and they applauded his hard
work. Aside from being dependable, Alvin
has also been very enthusiastic about
KIWIN'S itself. He comes to most if not every
meeting, attends a lot of events sharing a
contagious smile and laughter that
brightens up any awkward situation, and
lastly he's a wonderful KIWIN'S member and
we look forward to see what he's going to
offer in the future of KIWIN'S.
