Description of the Greater Memphis Branch
Our objective as the Greater Memphis Branch is to serve and improve our community, mainly by volunteering and contributing, but also to set an example for young children. The primary goal of this branch is to strengthen the skills of collaboration and initiative among peers throughout various services and activities. We want to make use of our time and do what we can to help, whether it be hosting fundraisers for various community programs, tutoring other children, or park cleanups. Throughout these services, we hope to encourage and influence leadership, responsibility, integrity, and self-discipline, which we believe are all important life skills.
Our current focus is fundraising for the Regional Intervention Program (RIP), a government initiative that supports parents in communicating with children exhibiting challenging behaviors. Building on the success of our previous summer campaigns, we continue to raise funds that will further enhance RIP’s resources, such as contributing to the construction of a playground on RIP’s campus. Alongside this central project, AYLUS Greater Memphis remains deeply involved in a variety of year-round activities, including live and virtual concerts, tutoring for elementary school students, and volunteer work at food banks and nursing homes. These efforts ensure that members are continually engaged in meaningful service, making a positive impact on their community while developing leadership skills and fostering a strong sense of social responsibility.
Anyone with an interest and passion dedicated to the advancement of our community is welcome to join our branch. We want every idea to be heard, every action to be taken. Your contributions will help make our branch, but most importantly, the community, a better place.
