On November 18, 2023, the AYLUS Twin Cities Branch members went to Jerry’s Foods in Edina to help fundraise for FMSC from 12:30 pm to 5:30 pm, totaling 5 hours. The volunteers helped customers carry their groceries out, put away carts, and send groceries out. After the event came to a close, we managed to raise $1000, an incredible accomplishment. The fundraiser was very successful, and it was great knowing that the money that the money raised would be donated to ICA, a local food shelf dedicated to fighting for security. It was a special experience interacting with the customers, knowing that the customer’s generosity would feed the community, which made the experience even better.
