Key Club is in international student-led service organization that provides its members with opportunities to provide service, build character, and develop leadership. Members participate in various service activities such as raising money for UNICEF, creating care cards for patients at Children’s Specialized Hospital, visiting Senior Citizens, and supporting local food banks.
The PHS Key Club is proud of their many accomplishments during the school year. They include:
-
- Partnered with our school’s Environmental Club to clean up the PHS campus.
- Canned both in school and at local shops to fundraise for Pennies for Patients (an organization that helps children with blood cancer). The Key Club raised over $400.
- Geomapped local parks to help with the NJ Department of Environmental Protection’s Take it Outside project.
- Visited Care One to spend time with the elderly on a regular basis. They regularly visit our local daycare.
- As the year winds down, they have several events to look forward to, like Relay for Life (Saturday, June 10) and PHS’s Redstock fair (Saturday, June 10).
- The Key Club organizes several end-of-year fundraisers (movie night, trivia night, etc.) that give general members chances to become leaders. The money will go to foodbanks.
The officers of the Parsippany High School Key Club are: President Samantha Lee; Vice President Udhay Khullar; Vice President Nicholas Lim; Recording Secretary Ellie Xu; Corresponding Secretary Angeline Jiju; Treasurer Albert Chen; Editor Alice Limanova; Historian Jessica Ho; and Webmaster Marc Hoeltge.
