AYLUS Rancho Cucamonga Branch Volunteers at TOYOTA ARENA on 01/28/2024
AYLUS RC Branch is a loving volunteer family where each member selflessly dedicates their leisure time outside of school. Starting in late December 2023, we were invited to participate in fundraising activities at Empire Strykers home games. There were as many as 12 fundraising activities during the more than 3-month competition period. This invitation was somewhat last-minute, as the event began on December 15th, and we received the invitation on December 12th. However, thanks to the enthusiastic response of each AYLUS RC member, we were able to recruit our student volunteers within three days and successfully participate in the event on the opening game day on December 15th.
The time has come to January 28, 2024, one of fundraising day,it coincided with Riverside’s annual Chinese Lunar New Year festival, which required AYLUS assistance. The AYLUS RC Branch volunteer leadership team made staffing arrangements according to members’ characteristics, assigning experienced student volunteers who had previously participated in multiple Empire Strykers home game fundraising activities to continue serving in the fundraising event. Their familiarity with the fundraising process and role distribution allowed them to better coordinate and carry out the fundraising activities.
Our student volunteers exceeded expectations, displaying enthusiasm, diligence, and reliability during a day with very few volunteer participants for the fundraising event. They earned praise and gratitude from the organizers and donors. Although there were not many volunteers participating in the Empire Strykers main fundraising event that day, our AYLUS RC Branch student volunteers helped raise a whopping $553, which was a really good donation amount that surprised us and also witnessed the results of the children’s hard work.I am proud of our AYLUS RC Branch kids. They strive to explore life, learn through experience, progress with encouragement, and grow with hope. They will grow into independent, opinionated, capable, and courageous new forces in society.
The volunteers who dedicated their time and energy to this cause were Yixuan Yuan; Ziyu Zhu; Zichen Zhu. Each volunteer contributed 4 hours.
