Description of the Roslyn Branch

The Roslyn branch will dedicate its time to not only the welfare of our local community but also of international communities. We truly believe that we can make a difference in the world and that we can do so by raising awareness about the lives people live in nations outside of the United States. In the United States, we generally live better lives than people elsewhere, and we believe that it’s important that we shouldn’t take what we have for granted. There are millions of people elsewhere who don’t have the same luxuries that we do. Through fundraisers and events, we hope to help people acknowledge the imperfections of the world around us and the low quality of life that 689 million other people are suffering through. We will devote our time to helping out these communities however we can. While we are interested in raising awareness about the welfare and well-being of international communities, we are also interested in raising awareness about the problems within our own nation. In 2021, it was estimated that there were 552,830 homeless, more than 38 million people who are food insecure, and over 37.2 million people suffering from poverty in the US. We will strive to help our community in any way we can while educating ourselves, those around us, and future generations about the problems plaguing our world in hopes of creating a better world in the hopefully near future.
