To prepare for the July plant sale, a fundraiser for the special needs’ day camp, AYLUS Pearland requested plant donations from the community. On June 29th, 2021, Mrs. Chan donated varieties of moss rose to the fundraiser and informed AYLUS members to dig them out from her backyard. Five AYLUS members brought tools to Mrs. Chan’s house and dug up the flowers. Later in the afternoon, another group of AYLUS members went to Mrs. Ding’s house to help dig up ginger flowers and Christmas cacti.
The volunteers worked hard during the humid afternoon by using shovels to clear out weeds and soil. It had been raining for days so the ground was completely soaked, making the prolonged process more tiresome and tedious. They removed ginger plants, iron trees and Christmas cacti, concluding a total of 50+ plants ready for the July fundraiser.
Morning shift participants (9AM-10AM): Alexander Sun, William Sun, Chen Wang, Alvin Zheng, and Jordan Zheng.
Afternoon shift participants (3PM-6PM): Alex Dai, Ray Huang, Alexander Sun, William Sun, Chen Wang, Alvin Zheng, and Jordan Zheng.
