On June 9, 2024, Murrieta AYLUS members lended a hand to local senior centers. They began with helping the residents settle in and getting them snacks, handing out puddings and jellos and pouring juice. For residents that were unable to eat on their own, the volunteers helped feed them and helped them drink. The volunteers put on light music of old times and conducted karaoke with bells. They then took time to put on documentary videos of bird mating dances that the residents enjoyed. Afterwards, they took the residents to lunch.

On June 9th, 2024, Murrieta AYLUS members played piano for the seniors.
This week, members had an extra member come join them to play. Members played a few songs and then continually switched off. Members sang along to the pieces they knew and commended the members for their dedication each week. The seniors had a lot of song requests for the members, which they tried their best to fulfill, and they will work on the pieces for next week. At the end, one of the seniors asked for Sweet Caroline, which the members played and the seniors all sang and danced in their chairs.
