What Key Club Is All About — Through the Eyes of Two Student Leaders

On this episode of Along the Rock, host Kaitlyn Blum sits down with Gavin Fischer and Dani Lovett, two student leaders from the Key Clubs of Sterling and Dixon High Schools.

Discover what makes Key Club the world’s largest student-led service organization, how local clubs are making a difference through projects like blanket-making for new mothers at CGH Medical Center and hygiene drives for the YWCA, and why the experience is preparing students for leadership far beyond high school.
