On October 13th, 2024, AYLUS members volunteered at local senior centers.
At Torrey Pines Senior Living: The volunteers split up to cover all the bases. Some led the residents through light exercises, stretching, and meditation to wake up their bodies. Others washed cups and fruit, cutting and preparing snacks of yoghurt and fruit cups for after the exercise. After exercise the cups of snack were passed out, and the volunteers helped feed some of the residents that needed assistance. A video was put on for entertainment as the volunteers took the residents outside for walks to enjoy the sunshine. Some opted to stay outside, so the volunteers talked with the residents and helped them get juice or water. After relaxing, the residents were taken to lunch.

On October 13th, 2024, Murrieta AYLUS members helped out at their local senior center.
Members signed in at the front desk before making their way to the library. Members did the usual, setting up and chatting with the seniors for a bit before playing piano. They played songs that seniors requested the previous week, before playing some new ones. At the end, members took song requests and will prepare them for the follow week to come.
