Description of the Warren Branch
We created our branch in response to the coronavirus pandemic. After seeing the struggle of local businesses, hospitals in need of supplies, and other terrible consequences that the pandemic has had on our society, it was our duty to help and give back to our community in this time of hardship.
Our mission is to support our community and those in need and engage students in productive volunteer work that teach important skills. We will create and work on projects that include fundraising, tutoring, food drives, and much more. Through these projects, we aim to improve our community and create an environment that inspires students to take initiative in volunteer events and be more generous. The Warren Branch will also help members learn essential skills like leadership, problem-solving, time management, and communication. Students will explore different fields of interest and gain technical skills through the projects. If you live around the area, please join our branch by emailing ayluswarren@gmail.com, and start supporting our community.
