Reported by Adora Xiao :
On December 29, 2024, Murrieta AYLUS members volunteered at local senior centers.
At Torrey Pines Senior Living, the volunteers put on and led the seniors through light yoga and exercise to get their blood flowing. Afterwards, they put on a documentary about foreign attractions while serving cookies and bananas to the residents, before giving out cups of water and juice. After collecting the residual trash, the volunteers took gloves and used lotion to do hand massages, which the residents enjoyed during a Christmas musical, before they were taken to their lunch.

On December 29th, 2024, Murrieta AYLUS played piano at the senior center.
After signing in at the front, members said hello to some seniors sitting by the fireplace before going to the library. As members played and seniors heard it a few came to listen. Most of the seniors were gone on trips with their families for the New Year. Seniors asked for some jazzy old pieces so members played some famous ones. Then they switched gears to upbeat classical music. Before leaving, members said goodbye to the seniors and helped a bit at the ice cream parlor before signing out.
