District Project
Combatting Youth Homelessness
For the 2025 – 2026 service year, there will be an emphasis on combatting youth homelessness! This will be done through:
Fundraising: Support organizations dedicated to ending youth homelessness by hosting fundraisers that provide essentials like hygiene kits, clothing, or shelter support for at-risk youth.
Service Events: Organize events such as donation drives, care package assemblies, or volunteer days with local shelters to directly assist youth experiencing homelessness.
Monthly Resources: Each month, your LTG will send out flyers and articles created by the District Project Committee to educate clubs on youth homelessness and provide actionable ways your club can get involved.
What You Can Do
As Key Clubbers, you have a duty to serve your home, school, and community. With this year’s district project, you can fulfill your duty by:
- Creating Service Events: Generate ideas related to the district project.
- Community Engagement: Service event ideas, prompts, and more will be released throughout the year each month in your LTG’s newsletters and on the NJKC Instagram!
