Twin Cities Branch: Fundraising for Feed My Starving Children Turkey Earthquake(2/11/23)

On February 11, 2023, the AYLUS Twin Cities Branch members went to Jerrys Foods in Edina to help fundraise for FMSC from 12:30 pm to 6 pm, totaling 5 hours and a half. 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 over $1800, an incredible accomplishment. This was our first time fundraising at Jerrys, and it was great knowing that the money that we fundraiser would help the victims of the earthquake in Turkey. It was a special feeling knowing that the customer’s generosity would feed the victims, which made the experience even better.
