One of our club's outstanding members, Julie Strivens, organized a service event with RYSE (Residential Youth Services & Empowerment). RYSE is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization operating a youth access center and shelter services in Kailua, Oahu. From 8am to 8pm seven days a week, youth ages 14–24 can use their drop-in services free of charge. Their goal is to provide safety and help youth get off the streets, so that they can live and thrive as healthy, happy young adults. Our club collected hygiene products that were donated to a group of ~25 youth. Julie made Valentines with a card signed by our club members to accompany the donations. |
