The Articles

LA Food Bank by Sebastian Valle

This event was my first key club volunteering for my senior

year, so I was eager to do a good job. This was however

about my fifth time doing this particular event over a time,

but I can’t complain too much about it because it is a

rewarding experience. Despite the time of day, and the

strain on the mind and body, pushing through it all was made

easier because I was not alone doing it. I was surrounded by

other volunteers who wanted just as much as me to make a

small difference in the lives of those in poverty. It really did

become fun as I made small talk with people around me and

met kids about my own age from other schools. Of course I

felt tired after a while and I just wanted to stop for a minute

and sleep, but it was only one day out of the whole year that

I would actually be helping people less fortunate than me in

any way. With that perspective I pushed past the fatigue

and tried my best to make a difference. And that is how I

think of the volunteer events I take part in because of Key

Club. One day at a time I can make a difference in a few

lives. And that can make even a bleak day better.

Glad Luau by Kai Knight

The GLAD Luau last weekend was a fun

and educational event! As volunteers,

we made a Hawaiian punch mix and a

delicious fruit salad. We also helped set

up some parts of the event, like the

place where food was served! When it

was time to eat, all o the key clubbers

served different things to the attendees

of the Luau, like pork, chicken, fruit

salad, and vegetable salad. Although I

didn’t get to stay the entire time, I had

a great time serving in the company of

kind people and fellow key club

members. And on top of that, I learned

how to say pork, chicken and punch in

sign language!
