On October 1st, AYLUS Oyster Bay once again successfully carried out an eight-hour environmental fundraising event at Bethpage Street Fair. It all began at 9 o’clock in the morning when the first group of volunteers arrived at the venue. They opened the red tents, set up tables and chairs, unloaded goods from vehicles, arranged eco-friendly products, placed price tags, and decorated with autumn-themed ornaments. Building upon our previous efforts, this time, we introduced new eco-friendly products like Eco-Friendly Wheat Straw Bento Lunch Boxes, Meal Plates, Travel Utensil Sets, Soup Spoons, Organic Natural Bamboo, Wheat Straws, and much more.
As in the past, we had two shifts of volunteers, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Our dedicated efforts and the support of our nine young volunteers and their parents have once again contributed to making a positive impact on the environment. Thank you for helping us make a difference!
Gratitude to the following 9 young volunteers, totaling 33 volunteer hours collectively.
Christina Mink 6 hours, Dylon Gray-Cohen 3 hours, Ariel Dai 4 hours, Penyu Chen 3 hours, Hoilee Dai 4 hours, Ethan Yu 3 hours, Christopher Chen 3 hours, Nikki Chen 3 hours, Zishan Chen 4 hours
