On March 12, 2025, the Shawnee State University Circle K International Club provided an update to the Kiwanis Club of Portsmouth. Presenters included Maggie Wiley, President of the Club, and Grace Justice, a four-year member who serves as the Buckeye Trails Lieutenant Governor.
In the fall of 2024, the club collected pet food donations for Sierra’s Haven and coordinated a coat drive to directly help SSU students, as many of the school’s international students cannot afford winter coats. Any extra coats were donated to The Salvation Army.
Grace represented the club this spring at the Ohio District Circle K Convention, where SSU received an award for Best Service Project and another member received a volunteer service award.
