GHHS KEY CLUB

No, we don't make keys but we do open doors... to opportunities! KEY Club stands for Kiwanis Educates Youth, and we are a service and leadership club. You can learn more about Key Club here!

We only allow members to join during the beginning of the school year because member dues are required to be turned into our District Board and International Board at that time. Unfortunately, application for the 2018-19 school year is closed. Try again next year!

Unfortunately no. The Executive Board came to this decision because in the past, seniors who joined Key Club their senior years never completed the requirement of hours and/or attended any volunteer events or meetings.

Please email ghhskey@gmail.com ASAP. You will not need to go through our membership application process as you are already a member of Key Club International.

Meetings are MANDATORY. Please email your class representatives (found here) if you cannot attend a meeting. You will receive 1 in-club hour for every general meeting you attend!

First, check your spam folder. If you are still not receiving any emails, please email us ASAP at ghhskey@gmail.com.

For the 2024-2025 school year, a total of 25 hours per semester is required to remain a member of Key Club. This consists of at least 15 in-club hours and at most 10 out-of-club hours. In-Club Hours are from volunteer events that are organized by Green Hope Key Club, so simply, the events that you get emails about from Green Hope Key Club will count towards in-club hours. Out-of-Club Hours are from whatever volunteering that you do outside of Key Club. These must be approved by class representative and must be recorded via an out-of-club hours form. If you are part of a team or another school club (athletic, performance, or academic), you can automatically count 3. Out-of-Club Hours are not required if you get all 25 through In-Club Hours.

No. We do not allow hours to be counted if they are already counted somewhere else.

Out-of-Club Hours are from whatever volunteering that you do outside of Key Club. These must be approved by class representative and must be recorded via an out-of-club hours form (found here). In you are unsure if your out-of-club event will be approved by a class representative, please email your class representative with a description of the events before the event occurs. You may not duplicated hours done for another club, such as Beta Club, National Honors Society, or Cary Teen Council. There is a limit of 6 religiously-affiliated hours and a limit of 3 hours per project except religiously-affiliated events. (This limit pertains to volunteer events that occur on one day. If you volunteer at the library once a week, you may count each of those instances as their own.) If you are part of a team or another school club (athletic, performance, or academic), you can automatically count 3 (but still turn in the out-of-club hours form for it). You can get a maximum of 3 out-of-club hours for one school sport team per semester and 3 out-of-club hours for one school club per semester. You may not count multiple sports or multiple clubs per semester. Out-of-Club Hours are not required if you get all 25 through In-Club and K-Family Hours.

No. We require that you complete 4 K-Family hours per semester. Once you have completed 4 K-Family hours, these hours will be counted as in-club hours.

Find out here! Please understand that sometimes the website may not be completely up to date, so don't freak out and bombard your class representatives with emails. However, if you still have concerns, feel free to email them.

Hours for first semester are due January 26. Please make sure you fill out and turn in an hours log to your class representative (blank forms can be found here).

If volunteer events are K-Family, then it should be highlighted in the email. However, generally, if you see another Key Club at an event or our Kiwanis Club members are attending an event, then it is a K-Family event.
