Greetings! My name is Michael Tran and I’m

the appointed District Awards & Recognition Chair

for the 2015-'16 term. I’m currently a sophomore at La

Quinta High School. I take part in other extracurricu-

lars such as Marching Band and Winter Drumline. My

favorite TV shows are The Walking Dead, American

Horror Story, and Criminal Minds. I love chicken Alfre-

do and boba and my favorite color is blue!!

One word: OHANA. These past two years in

KIWIN’S have really changed me as a person. I have

made so many friendships in KIWIN’S and I honestly

believe that it is my second family. This ohana has

been by my side through it all and I have learned so

many wonderful lessons from members and officers.

KIWIN’S has so far made a huge impact in my life be-

cause I have grown to love service and discovered

leadership within myself!! From a personal level I

gained tons of experience in volunteering and serv-

ing my community. KIWIN’S is my ohana, my support

system, and my motivation for service. I'm very

thrilled to be on District Board and ready to serve the organization and members I care for.

My goal this year is to improve member participation in District events by recognizing members,

officers and clubs in any way possible. In order to do this, I would like to incorporate monthly awards

such as Member, Officer, and Club of the Month. I would like to use these awards to recognize mem-

bers for their hard work in the past month and also to motivate other members to work just as hard. An-

other goal I hope to reach is to increase the amount of clubs applying for awards this year compared

to the previous year! Clubs should apply for awards because not only does it allow for you and your

school to be recognized, it also represents the empathy and hard work you’ve contributed into this or-

ganization. I urge ALL clubs to apply no matter how small or how big your club is, please please just ap-

ply! If you are struggling with any aspect of the application (especially the formatting) or have any

other KIWIN’S related questions, please let me know!! I’m always here to help anyone with anything

about awards! Good luck to everyone, don’t procrastinate and make sure to meet the required dead-

lines! Yours in Service,

Michael Tran

Officer Award

Distinguished Vice President

Rules Governing the Distinguished Vice President

Award

Robert Greenleaf, the founder of the modern servant leadership movement, wrote: “A true

leader is called to serve his/her followers, employees, and others in the organization.”

The duty as a vice president of a KIWIN’S club consists of being more than the president’s assis-

tant. The vice president has to help keep the club productive and assist the president in finding service

projects and fundraisers. Two major aspects of great vice presidents are their versatility and will. They

are able to perform the duties of all officers in any situation and find ways to make them useful when

no particular task is demanded of them. The Distinguished Club Vice President Award acknowledges

an outstanding vice president of a KIWIN’S club for his or her commitment to the club and community.
