The Greater
Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce honored the Sandpoint High School Key Club as
March’s Volunteer of the Month. Key Club is very involved in our community and
the work these students do is amazing.
“This year
we fund-raised for The Eliminate Project, which aims to eliminate Maternal
Neonatal Tetanus from the world, mainly focusing on third world countries. We
earned enough money to provide for 1,000 vaccinations by selling cotton candy
at SHS football games. We also donated a superhero themed tree for The Festival
of Trees which sponsors Kinderhaven. In addition, our club partnered up with
the local Kiwanis Club and participated in bell ringing for the Salvation Army.
Key Club has also sponsored Head Start's parent meeting dinners. Our latest
project was a school-wide diaper drive in which we teamed up with the SHS
Interact Club. We collected diapers, wipes, and money for the food bank,” said
Alicia Walker, SHS Key Club President.
Please join
the Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce in congratulating SHS Key Club for
being honored as the Volunteer of the Month and thanking them for all of their
contributions and dedication to our community. From the Greater Sandpoint
Chamber of Commerce, as well as the whole community, Thank You!
