AYLUS Basking Ridge Branch organized a Disaster Relief Drive for the Turkey Earthquake Survivors with the Bridgewater and Edison Branch. BR AYLUS members advertised the Drive and sent flyers to places within the local community. It was a really successful event and got a great response. The donations were collected, categorized, and labeled by BR AYLUS volunteers.
