On the evening of July 27, 2024, AYLUS members gathered at Russell Creek Park to fundraise for the African Libraries project by selling Tiger Milk Tea, shaved ice, and ice water. Volunteers were assigned to various different tasks. Some volunteers made the Tiger Milk Tea and shaved ice while other volunteers advertised and advocated about AYLUS to community members. In addition, a couple of new AYLuS members learned how to make Tiger Milk Tea and shaved ice. Volunteers were also able to learn more about how to advocate and advertise for AYLUS to members of the community. Overall, the AYLUS Frisco and Plano branch served a lot of community members and fundraised money for the African Libraries project, making this event a great success.
