A W A R D S

Throughout this month, Ashley Nguyen, our recording secretary, has shown initiative as a board member by coming up with ideas for service events as fundraisers and acting upon them. By taking initiative for certain

fundraisers and service events, she has shown her leadership. She shows her care by reaching out to

general members and taking consideration of their concerns, which she brings up either at board meetings.

In the beginning of the term, she was a little shy and reserved; however, now she isn't afraid to assert her

opinion and explain why she thinks so. In this way, she has built her character from someone shy to someone who has the characteristics of a leader. She listens to

everyone and socializes well with people in and out of the club. As an embodiment of the four core values, Ashley has shown incredible dedication as a board

member. Congrats to Ashley for being recognized as Jet Division's officer of the month!

Jet Division's

Member of the Month - Chaiya Tee

Chaiya Tee deserves to be the Member of the Month because he has shown tremendous spirit and dedication for KIWIN'S. At one of the first events of the

year, the Hyundai Hope On Wheels service event, Chaiya has been determined to help out those in need and is always ready to lend a helping hand. During Club Rush, he volunteered to hold our club signs, and at Fall Rally, he also volunteered to help out with holding our divisional hula hoop signs for Jet. Throughout Fall Rally, Chaiya could be seen shouting out our cheers loudly and with pride. Even though Fall Rally season is over, he still

chants cheers freely to encourage and bring up people's spirits! Lastly, Chaiya is great person whose passion and dedication to KIWIN'S will drive him

to achieve and do great things!
