On November 4, 2024, AYLUS San Diego Branch made sack lunches for Interfaith Community Services.
Interfaith Community Services, founded in 1979, is a nonprofit based in San Diego, CA. The organization provides food, housing, employment, treatment and other emergency resources for local people in crisis. Food is our most basic human need, yet thousands of residents in North San Diego County are food insecure. Each day at Interfaith sack lunches are distributed to people as needed and available. Interfaith distributes 200+ sack lunches daily.
AYLUS San Diego Branch set up the recurring volunteer events to prepare sack lunches from our own kitchen and drop off to Interfaith Community Services. Each includes a PB & J sandwich or Ham Cheese Sandwich , a fruit, a couple of snacks and water.
The following 11 AYLUS volunteers participated and made 222 sack lunches 11/04/2024 and delivered all of them to Interfaith Community Services on the day:
Eric Xie (21 bags, 3 hrs.), Jessica Sun (21 bags, 3 hrs.) , Brianna Zhang (21 bags, 3hrs), Xiaoran Li (22 bags, 3hrs) , Alexander Backues (21 bags, 3hrs) , Katherine Backues (21 bags, 3hrs) , Angie Hu (21 bags, 3hrs), Maggie Hu (21 bags, 3hrs), Emily Wu (21 bags, 3 hrs) , Sophie Wu (21 bags, 3hrs). and Jessica (Jialin) Jiang (11 bags, 2hrs)
