KIP team is a club in our school that promotes kindness within our community. We achieve this by doing volunteer work that supports people in need in our community.

We also do presentations for eight graders where we give advice on on how to overcome conflicts in their daily lives. It is a joint partnership between lcsd and lchs where youth gather to network and support the kindness initiative.

• We have visited Pioneer housing where we visited the residents there and handed out hand made crocheted hats and gloves, as well as home baked goods.
• In February, All members of KIP team spent 2 days being trained on the information given in the presentations we give to the Eighth graders within our school divisions in Lloyd. We worked together the entire time and participated in extensive group work to overcome conflicts and answer questions we see in the classroom.

I ran a Social Media Account for a local program called Connecting parents for approximately a year and a half. I would regularly post events the program hosted and assisted any users who had questions about anything. Connecting parents is a support group in Lloyd for parents wanting to learn and overcome problems their kids or themselves might be facing. I was passionate about supporting my community and learning more about mental health in the process.
