Youth Opportunities Fund Information Do you have a project that you are passionate about, but don’t have the funding to make it happen? Look no further! The Youth Opportunities Fund (YOF) is a grant that is available for all Key Club members to qualify for. This grant ranges from $100 up to $2000, so you can make just about anything happen, large or small. Applications will be accepted up until October 15th at 11:59 PM, so if you have any ideas, make sure to start thinking about if the Youth Opportunities Fund can help you! The application can be found on the Wisconsin-Upper Michigan Key Club website under the ‘resources’ tab and within the ‘grants’ page. If you are unsure about ideas to utilize the grant, a few examples can be found here. All applications will be viewed and approved by the Key Club International Board and the grants will be given out in October. Guidelines for filling out the application can be found in the Key Club guidebook under ‘board policies’. If you have any questions about the YOF, you may feel free to contact your Lieutenant Governor or another district board member. Applications can be mailed, emailed, or faxed to Nicole Harris and must be received by October 15th. Where to send the YOF grant application: Email: yof@kiwanis.org.

One of the coolest and lesser known things about the WIUM District Board is that they accept applications four times a year for grants! Grants provide financial assistance of up to $200 to Key Clubs that can be used for service projects. Clubs can apply for grants before the service project by estimating the cost of the project to receive funds and submitting receipts later, or apply for grants after the service project happens to be reimbursed for the costs. The application is easy to find on the WIUM website under the “Resources” tab and easy to fill out. Once you’ve typed all of the necessary information into the grant application (all information has to be typed, not handwritten!), you submit it to the WIUM Key Club District Administrator Kathy Gillis who has her contact information listed at the end of the application. It’s a simple way to host some fun, cool, new service projects in your club. Start brainstorming today; the possibilities are endless! By Leslie Kent, Lieutenant Governor-Division 11 Page 6
International Trustee Introduction Hello, Wisconsin-Upper Michigan District! My name is Kacie Hines, and I have the honor of serving Wisconsin-Upper Michigan District for the 2015-2016 school year as an International Trustee. I am an upcoming senior at Vestavia Hills High School in Alabama. Along with serving my home, school, and community, I am an avid Netflix watcher and eno swinging enthusiast. My Key Club journey began long before most. My mom became a faculty advisor when I was two years old, so Key Club was in my life long before I was ever allowed to be a part of it. I’ve gone from District Webmaster for half a year, to District Media Tech to District Governor, and now I’m here- serving as an International Trustee. Key Club has given me a way to channel my passion and I could not be more thankful to be a part of this amazing organization. What exactly is an International Trustee, and what is the importance of an International Board? That’s a very good question! An International Trustee is liaison from the International level to the district level. We work in trying to make the service year the best for every single members; we also work on various committees. This year I will be serving on the Executive Committee with International President Rip Livingston, International Vice-President Addie Clipfell, Trustee Heather Farley, and Trustee Hojin Yoon, as well as the International Development Committee, chaired by Trustee Anastasia Slepukhova. If you have any questions about International or just want to talk feel free to contact me! Yours in Service, Kacie Hines International Trustee Email: khines@alabamakeyclub.org Page 7
