ICON Revisited Key Goes Green Meet a Key Clubber

A Message International President Rip Livingston
Greetings, Florida District!
Just a few weeks ago, our organization convened in Indianapolis for our
annual International Convention alongside Circle K and Kiwanis International
as we celebrated Kiwanis’ centennial birthday. It was an unforgettable
experience for all, and that week, I was fortunate enough to be elected
President of Key Club International.
As International President, my job is to lead our organization for the next
year; to set the vision of what Key Club is, should be, and will be; to supervise
and work with your 11 International Trustees, ensuring that they
serve and work with your district properly; to unite all 33 districts under
our common mission, and to do everything in my power to leave this organization
better than I found it when I leave office in 2016.
Key Club has an exciting year ahead of it! We’re entering the last decade of
our first 100 years. We’re embarking on a journey to fulfill a 3 million dollar
pledge to the Eliminate Project. We’re working every day to make membership
larger, stronger, and an experience that leaves all 270,000 satisfied.
As a Key Club member, you’ve chosen to be a part of something greater
than yourself. Greater than your home club, your division, or even your
district; you’ve chosen to be one of the thousands of hands Key Club International
unites for the greater good around the word. As the saying goes,
“United we stand; Divided we fall”: Let’s unite, Key Club. We’re a global
network of smart, inspired, capable servant leaders. Can you imagine what
we can do when we come together?
It’s an honor to be your leader this year. I wish
you the very best in all of your endeavors this
school year- Key Club and otherwise- and thank
you sincerely for being a Key Clubber. Let’s have
a fantastic year!
Best regards,
Rip Livingston
President, Key Club International
