Description of the Greater Seattle Area Branch

This branch was created in the Greater Seattle Area, amid the panic and fear that hit the area when the coronavirus outbreak arrived in early 2020. We believed then was the time to stand out, call more young leaders in the community to join us, and encourage people in the neighborhood to avoid panicking and deal with this crisis through our proactive volunteering, outreach events, and community service work. We believed that the spirit of personal initiative, community involvement, and active leadership would be carried on beyond the natural conclusion of the crisis.

The goal of this branch is to promote volunteerism and community service, and to demonstrate a sense of responsibility, devotion, and generosity. We encourage young people to seize the initiative, to assume the duties of a good role model, and to become important contributors and leaders in their community through meaningful charity, volunteer services, and civic involvement. We also believe that even the smallest amount of effort can make a significant difference in the world, which is why we would like to get together and dedicate ourselves to cultivating a good character and a spirit of selfless service so that we may become examples of model citizens in this developing generation.

If anyone is interested in joining this noble initiative, please contact us at jeffrey@sunnydo.com. We would love for you to join Seattle AYLUS!
