In December, 2020, San Diego volunteers of AYLUS organized the Cookies for Heroes activity. In this activity, AYLUS volunteers baked cookies and other light snacks, which were delivered to front line workers in local hospitals.
As of winter of this year, COVID cases in California rose dramatically. With no signs of decreasing or slowing down, these rampant increases in confirmed cases put an increasingly great strain on the healthcare workers in local hospitals. Many healthcare workers are overworked and in short supply trying to save lives. As the pandemic continues to go on, these many of these heroes are under-rested and are very busy.
In order to show our support for these medical workers, many AYLUS San Diego volunteers delivered home-made cookies to local hospitals.
Many of the healthcare workers greatly appreciated this sign of our support, and enjoyed the homemade snacks!
AYLUS San Diego volunteers made and delivered the following donations to local hospitals:
Chocolate Chip Cookies (30 pieces)
Banana Bread (30 pieces)
Panettone Cupcakes (30 Pieces)
checkerboard cookie (24 pieces)
cupcake & cookies (24 pieces)
The following volunteers participated in this event: Andrew Chen, Edward Liu, Serena Liu, mia scinta and Chengda Li
