Partnering with community organizations in Chinatown as well as medical schools in the greater Chicagoland area, we volunteer regularly at community health fairs, health screenings, health education events, providing translation and logistical assistance.

HEALTH INFORMATION DESK

We create and share health education resources for Chinatown residents, which has included establishing a health information desk at the Chinatown Public Library as a community platform.

SOCIALS/FOOD BONDING

We love food! Every quarter we hold a fundraiser (buns, dumplings, tanghulu) to raise money for our initiatives and social events to foster community within our organization. We also take trips down to Chinatown to eat food and explore the community!
