In this episode of the Fairview Advantage Podcast, we kick off the 2024-2025 school year by spotlighting the Key Club Care Closet at Fairview High School.
The episode explores the development and launch of the Key Club Care Closet, a new resource designed to provide students with essential items such as personal hygiene products and other supplies. This important addition aims to support students who may need these basic necessities, creating a positive and supportive environment within the school.
Listeners will gain insights into how the Key Club identified the need for the Care Closet, their challenges in setting it up, and how donations are being gathered from the school and community. The episode also highlights other service projects the Key Club is involved in, such as teaching technological literacy to seniors and organizing donation drives. It’s a powerful conversation about student leadership, community service, and making a tangible difference in the lives of others.

And now here's this week'sepisode.
Thank you for joining us foranother episode of the Fairview
advantage podcast. My name isDan rajkovich. I'm the
Communications and MarketingCoordinator here in the Fairview
Park City Schools. And welcometo our first episode of the 2024
(01:06):
2025 school year. We're reallyexcited to bring you even more
stories about the Fairview ParkCity School District this year.
So thanks so much for joining ustoday. We are joined by three
Fairview high school studentswho are going to talk to us
about Key Club and the Key Clubcare closet, which has started
this year. Joining us are NicoleJang a senior. Isabel clawman,
(01:32):
sir, also a senior. Did I getthat right? Okay, and Lauren
Eberly, who is a junior. Here wego. So tell me, in your words,
right, what is, what is KeyClub?
We're a national organizationwho is dedicated towards making
changes in our community andoffering service.
(01:54):
That's pretty much it. Yeah.
So talk to me about likeservice, I guess, like, what do
we mean? Like service, wego about our community, like
within our school and around ourschool, just to offer help to
those who might need anyassistance.
We do a lot of stuff with theGillis suite, PTA, especially,
helping out at the EUC andGillis. And we also are starting
(02:18):
to do a lot more stuff withinthe school, like, with Mrs. Cole
and the coffee cart, or, likeyou said, the care closet now,
like, what is the Key Club carecloset? Why did we do it? Like,
what? Why was this important tothe Fairview High School, Key
Club? Well,the care closet is a space in
the school where students can goto to get, like, personal
(02:39):
hygiene products or schoolsupplies, or really, like any
basic necessities that theyneed. And this was especially
important for us because I thinkwe do a lot of donation drives
throughout the school, like, noteven just key clubs, again, NHS
and builders club and whatnot,but those were all for, like,
outreach at differentcommunities and stuff. There
wasn't really a space in theschool where our students could
(03:00):
go and get these things. So itwas really Madame Peters brought
it to us first, and we jumped onit immediately, because it seems
like a really good idea to havein the school.
Anything else to add there,I think we really started it
just so we could be there forour peers who needed it, just so
we can help out with ourcommunity more than we already
(03:22):
do. Okay,so I'm going a little off
script. Maybe it is on script,but how did we determine that
need? Like, I mean, it's asensitive subject for a lot of
people, right? Not only gettingdonations of things, but, you
know, having to talk about whatthey need, right? So, like, how
did, how did Key Club figurethat all out?
(03:43):
I mean, at Gillis, I know theyhave a sort of system similar to
a care closet, and we don't havesomething like that here, where
people here can go and findthings and get something that
they may need. So we figured,we're an organization who's here
to help. Why don't we setsomething up in the school?
This was the care closet. Wassomething that was started by, I
(04:04):
believe, a different teacher inanother state, and has spread to
a lot of different schools. So Ithink we used a lot of that as a
basis for it, and seeing whatother teachers recommended and
what worked for other schoolsand that sort of stuff.
How long have you all been inKey Club four years,
at four years sinceyou were freshmen.
(04:25):
This will be my second year.
I've been in it since I was asophomore.
What kind of drew you to KeyClub to begin with? Because it's
a different thing. It's not likestagecrafters or something like
that, right, where there's amaybe a product at the end,
like, why for each of you, maybea different I don't know. Why
did we choose Key Club? I wantedto go out there and try to make
a difference in my school andcommunity. And I mean, I know my
(04:46):
sister did it, but I alwaysloved the idea of being able to
give a helping hand and justmaking a difference,
to be completely honest, for me,because I think that a lot of
people in Key Club kind of. Dothe same thing and have the same
experience. It was sort of justan extracurricular that I felt
that I should do, like I just Ineeded something to do after
(05:08):
school. Key Club just seemedlike an easy option, but over
time, I've stayed and wanted tobecome an officer, because I saw
the impact that I was making,and all the volunteer
experiences that I had werereally fun, and I actually
really enjoyed it, likeNicole, I just wanted to have
another extracurricular to puton, like my college application.
But I also really like makingconnections in my community and
(05:31):
school and seeing a differenceand making that change and
helping my peers also make thatchange too. Let's
talk about some of the otherthings. The Key Club, right? I
know we do the Easter baskets.
That was a big one last year.
What's some of the otherprojects that that Key Club does
throughout the year?
Well, right now, we are helpingout with the Fair Use Senior
(05:53):
Center, and we are teaching, orlike tutoring, technological
literacy there. So we go thereevery week, a few of us, and we
sit and help the seniors withany technological problems
they're having. And it's, it's areally fun thing that I think a
lot of people are enjoying, likehow to access email on cell
phones.
(06:14):
And the more technologicalproblems, like the actual my
phone is not working, how do Ifix it?
Sure, and how's that going? Isit? I mean, fun? It's gonna be
pretty fun. Yeah, the seniorslove
having us there, and they lovetalking to us. So, yeah, sure.
Okay, so what are some of theways that we are collecting
things for the care closet? Canpeople just bring in items to
(06:36):
the school? Or do we have, like,drives? Or how does that work?
Wehave bins around the school and
PTA also has, like, an Amazonwishlist that we get, and we
have our homecoming game nextweek that we're taking notation
donations for. So we're justgonna be collecting out our
homecoming game for people tojust put stuff in our care
closet.
And this might be our onlyfootball game that we're
(06:58):
collecting. I don't know ifthat's special, but probably,
but we're gonna look at doingother sporting venues too, like
basketball games, sure, maybesome track meets down the road.
Just we try, we want to try toget the notice out there about
the care closet. So like, Hey,you're coming to this event. Why
don't you just bring somethingsmall that we're looking for
when you come in. Andthe wish list is really open to
(07:20):
anybody in the community, reallythe world, right? I mean, if
they wanted to make it, if analumni was living in California,
and they wanted to give back tothe school, realistically, they
could do that through the wishlist. Wish List is pretty easy,
right? I mean, maybe even forour senior citizens at the
Senior Center. I mean, it's apretty easy it's a pretty easy
thing to do, correct? Yes, whatkind of things are do we have on
(07:40):
the wish list, like deodorant,body wash, toothbrushes? We're
trying to get a lot more of thepersonal hygiene products,
rather than, like, schoolsupplies and stuff. They are
still on there, but we want tomore shift our focus to personal
hygiene, personal necessities.
Yeah, we have, like, laundrydetergent and stuff on there. Is
(08:01):
thisthe first year we do that? Or
did we do this last year too?
Did we start it last yearor, like in the process of
coming up with the sustainableway to do this system? But we
were just in the plannings lastyear, so this will be our first
year actually implementing it.
So let's say I'm a student whomaybe needs an item from the
(08:23):
care closet. How do we go aboutconnecting them, you know, to
those resources? We'restill in the process of setting
that up, just because we'restill trying to get more
donations and stuff, but Ibelieve it'll just be a system,
either through the counselingoffice or midham Peters herself.
You know, we're not going to askany questions if anyone needs
any supplies or anything, but,you know, if someone needs
(08:46):
something, they can just ask andwe'll get them access to it.
Sure.
Has there been any challenges sofar, like getting this off the
ground? I mean, I mean, I don'tknow, outside of getting the
word out. I mean, was itdifficult coming up with the
list of things, or, I mean, Idon't know, has there been
challenges for Key Club in termsof getting this started? I think
(09:06):
you kind of just have to thinkof, like, what you would need,
and then kind of expand on that,like, like laundry detergent and
stuff. Like, would definitely bean expansion on that. But and
donations is a big thing. Weneed to get our donations up,
and we need to make sure thatpeople are aware of our care
closet.
Sure. Do we have any goals forthis year? Like, any help is
(09:27):
good help, right? I mean, solike, but as a as a group, did
we kind of have some goalscoming into it this year?
I think we just want to kind ofget it off the floor and running
and just keep it going past thisyear. I don't think we really
had a concrete like amount thatwe wanted. We just want enough
to get it started and to have itas a space where people can go
(09:49):
and get what they need.
Yeah, I think we just want tofill the closet up so that, like
after Isabel and I leaveunderclassmen and all the future
underclassmen can work on, youknow, keeping. Running and
stuff, sure, yeah, you know, youmentioned, you mentioned before
that it was kind of a resumething, and it was something to
do after school, like, what'syour sell to somebody who's a
student at Fairview High Schoolinterested in joining Key Club,
(10:13):
you know, but maybe they're onthe fence about the time
commitment, or however thatworks, like, and I know key
Club's a very popular group herein the school, I know you guys
have a ton of members in KeyClub already, but what would you
say to somebody who maybe is onthe fence about joining it or
maybe donating, right? I mean,it's, you know, it's sometimes
maybe there isn't a lot of moneyin their family to make a
(10:34):
donation. So, like, how doesthat? How does that look for
you? Ithink if you join Key Club, it's
an easy way to make a change. Itdoesn't require money. We only
have a $20 fee. But other thanthat, it's an easy way to make a
change. It's fun. You buildrelationships with your the
other people in the club, andvolunteering is also fun. And
you get to figure out new thingsabout yourself, figure out what
(10:56):
you like to do. So it's kind ofjust like a very good way to get
yourself started at going intocollege, continuing into world
and figuring out what who youare as a person and what you
want to do.
Yeah, and there's so manyopportunities that, like, even
if you are involved in so manyother extracurriculars, like I
(11:17):
know I am, I still find so muchtime that I'm able to do
different opportunities andstill help out in my community,
in school, andlike Lauren said, volunteer
experience in general, evenoutside of Key Club, is just so
important because it teaches youso many things, not only about
yourself, but other people, likeI know, I've gotten so much
better at like connecting withpeople through volunteering and
(11:39):
through Key Club, and I thinkthat's just such a valuable
experience for anyone,especially a high schooler.
What's our favorite eventthroughout the year? Is it the
Easter baskets? Or what youknow,
my favorite is going over theRec Center and doing the respite
for the special educationchildren? I really I grew up
(12:00):
around them because my mom's aspeech therapist, so I really
enjoy helping out with thosekids and kind of learning how to
interact with them and help themhave a good time, as well as
giving their parents a break.
Yeah, I love going to Gila suitebecause, I mean, we were all
there once, and it's just fun tosee these little kids seeing how
eventually they're gonna bewhere I am now, and just being
(12:23):
able to help them out, seeingthem have fun, and just giving
them that opportunity, yeah,like
Isabelle, I really enjoy theventicula suite on the EEC. It's
like seeing these little kidshave so much fun with their
family, and being able to helpout with that is, is really
special.
Here's the last question, solet's talk about next year,
right? You two are seniors,you're a junior. So we'll get,
(12:45):
we'll get to you in a second,plans for next year, looking at
college. What do we what are wethinking for next year? It's
okay if the answer is undecidedor we don't know, but you know,
it's that time of year, right?
Starting to look around a littlebit, starting to starting to
figure out what's next. So I'llleave it to you.
I'm definitely going to college.
I'm planning on majoring inenvironmental engineering. Not
sure where I'm going yet, butI'm I'm definitely looking at
(13:07):
continuing my education,and I do will be going to
college. I'm looking at the likefilm and writing sides, because
I want to be able to be thatperson who can be a gateway for
people to have their voicesspread. And that's also I like
doing Key Club, because it givesme that opportunity to go out
(13:27):
there and help people. And Iwant to continue doing that. I'm
not 100% certain where I'm gonnago, but I know I want to make a
difference.
And Lauren kind of, we'regetting started right, maybe in
the college process, or, youknow,
yeah, so I'm hoping to major inmechanical engineering and minor
in clinical engineering, and I'mlooking into like, Miami and
(13:50):
BGSU, but I'm excited to have mysenior year of high school, so
I'm trying to take it one stepat a time, just so I don't lose
this, sure.
And we're all officers in KeyClub, yes. Okay, and
we are, I'm the secretary, I'mthe senior President, I'm
the junior president. Okay,so just to sum up really
quickly, best way for people tomake a donation probably is
through the Amazon wishlist,probably the easiest. But if
(14:12):
they also want to drop offdonations, can they do that at
the main office? Or how doesthat look?
I believe. So I think we'regoing to start working on that
process, and also we have ourhomecoming game next week, so
hopefully everybody comes tothat and supports our football
team, and everybody nominatedfor court and stuff. And
let's talk about a little bitabout that. So we'll have a
(14:32):
table set up at homecoming orsomething like that, and then
we'll just be collectingpromotions there. Some
of our volunteers will bestanding at the table and
collecting stuff. Well, thanksvery much for the time. Of
course, yeah, of course, youguys are doing great work. I
mean, I'm sure it's appreciatedall over town. You know this,
it's a sensitive thing, right?
And you guys are doing a greatjob and making sure everybody's
(14:53):
needs are met. So I reallyappreciate it. And thank you so

yourself started at going intocollege, continuing into world
and figuring out what who youare as a person and what you
want to do.
Yeah, and there's so manyopportunities that, like, even
if you are involved in so manyother extracurriculars, like I
(11:17):
know I am, I still find so muchtime that I'm able to do
different opportunities andstill help out in my community,
in school, andlike Lauren said, volunteer
experience in general, evenoutside of Key Club, is just so
important because it teaches youso many things, not only about
yourself, but other people, likeI know, I've gotten so much
better at like connecting withpeople through volunteering and
(11:39):
through Key Club, and I thinkthat's just such a valuable
experience for anyone,especially a high schooler.
What's our favorite eventthroughout the year? Is it the
Easter baskets? Or what youknow,
my favorite is going over theRec Center and doing the respite
for the special educationchildren? I really I grew up
(12:00):
around them because my mom's aspeech therapist, so I really
enjoy helping out with thosekids and kind of learning how to
interact with them and help themhave a good time, as well as
giving their parents a break.
Yeah, I love going to Gila suitebecause, I mean, we were all
there once, and it's just fun tosee these little kids seeing how
eventually they're gonna bewhere I am now, and just being
(12:23):
able to help them out, seeingthem have fun, and just giving
them that opportunity, yeah,like
Isabelle, I really enjoy theventicula suite on the EEC. It's
like seeing these little kidshave so much fun with their
family, and being able to helpout with that is, is really
special.
Here's the last question, solet's talk about next year,
right? You two are seniors,you're a junior. So we'll get,
(12:45):
we'll get to you in a second,plans for next year, looking at
college. What do we what are wethinking for next year? It's
okay if the answer is undecidedor we don't know, but you know,
it's that time of year, right?
Starting to look around a littlebit, starting to starting to
figure out what's next. So I'llleave it to you.
I'm definitely going to college.
I'm planning on majoring inenvironmental engineering. Not
sure where I'm going yet, butI'm I'm definitely looking at
(13:07):
continuing my education,and I do will be going to
college. I'm looking at the likefilm and writing sides, because
I want to be able to be thatperson who can be a gateway for
people to have their voicesspread. And that's also I like
doing Key Club, because it givesme that opportunity to go out
(13:27):
there and help people. And Iwant to continue doing that. I'm
not 100% certain where I'm gonnago, but I know I want to make a
difference.
And Lauren kind of, we'regetting started right, maybe in
the college process, or, youknow,
yeah, so I'm hoping to major inmechanical engineering and minor
in clinical engineering, and I'mlooking into like, Miami and
(13:50):
BGSU, but I'm excited to have mysenior year of high school, so
I'm trying to take it one stepat a time, just so I don't lose
this, sure.
And we're all officers in KeyClub, yes. Okay, and
we are, I'm the secretary, I'mthe senior President, I'm
the junior president. Okay,so just to sum up really
quickly, best way for people tomake a donation probably is
through the Amazon wishlist,probably the easiest. But if
(14:12):
they also want to drop offdonations, can they do that at
the main office? Or how doesthat look?
I believe. So I think we'regoing to start working on that
process, and also we have ourhomecoming game next week, so
hopefully everybody comes tothat and supports our football
team, and everybody nominatedfor court and stuff. And
let's talk about a little bitabout that. So we'll have a
(14:32):
table set up at homecoming orsomething like that, and then
we'll just be collectingpromotions there. Some
of our volunteers will bestanding at the table and
collecting stuff. Well, thanksvery much for the time. Of
course, yeah, of course, youguys are doing great work. I
mean, I'm sure it's appreciatedall over town. You know this,
it's a sensitive thing, right?
And you guys are doing a greatjob and making sure everybody's
