Project Suggestions

The following list of projects are suggestions to help your club get started in its work with the 1998-1999 Governor’s Project.

Your work with the local Florida Network shelter is an excellent way to participate in Key Club International’s Major Emphasis Program, Teaming Up to Create Champions. Your club could also adopt your Florida Network shelter as your 1998-1999 Single Service Project.

Regardless of how your club chooses to participate in the 1998 Governor’s Project, your help will improve the lives of thousands of Florida’s children.

1. Hold a car wash and donate the proceeds to the shelter or to the maintenance of the 1.800.RUNAWAY Hotline.
