Looking for Ways to Earn your Hours?

This webpage will be updated throughout the year with opportunities for you to be able to earn all of your Key Club hours for the year. 35 hours can seem super daunting at first, but breaking it down to a couple smaller things per quarter makes it a lot easier. Please look here for organizations/opportunities that work year-round. Remember that you are also allowed to create your own service projects, such as neighborhood clean-ups, making lunches for homeless shelters, or anything else you are passionate about that will serve the community.

Remember the Pi sales and the UNICEF Halloween boxes! They're a great way to earn hours and give back to our community. Check the October General Meeting Slides for more information!
