We Rang in the Year of the Horse with a Bang! 🐎
For the second year running, we came to the UB Center for the Arts to celebrate Chinese New Year with our neighbors. From 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM Sunday February 15th, our booth was arguably “the place to be.”
The Lucky Wheel Legend
Our lucky wheel had a line longer than the one at the DMV (but much more fun). From kids to grandparents, everyone walked away with a smile—and maybe a prize! We gave away everything from smart glasses and headsets to red light therapy devices and red envelopes with crisp new bills for good luck. And for those who just needed a sugar hit? We had the Hershey’s Kisses ready to go.
Real Talk & Real Connections
It wasn’t all just fun and games; we had some incredibly authentic conversations. You asked us about our community survey data, our new projects, and where to find local resources. We loved the “no-filter” energy of the Q&A!
The Result?
- 30+ new friends signed up for our newsletter.
- Zero prizes left behind.
- One very tired, very happy team.
A massive thank you to our superstar volunteers: Brad Berry, Jiaying Zhang, Zhen Jiang, Victor Zhang, and Yi Tang. You made the magic happen!
标题：马年新春燃起来！🐎
今年是我们连续第二年来到UB艺术中心，与街坊邻居们共庆春节。二月十五日周日下午12点至2点半，我们的展位可说是全场最热闹的地方！
“幸运大转盘”火爆
我们的幸运转盘前排起了长龙——比去车管所排的队还长，但有趣多了！从小朋友到爷爷奶奶，每个人转完都笑着离开，还带走了心仪的奖品。我们送出了智能眼镜、耳机、红光理疗仪，当然还有装着崭新钞票的红包，为您招财进宝。爱甜食的朋友也没让你们失望——好时巧克力Kiss，管够！
真诚交流连连
活动不只是玩乐，走心的交流一个接着一个——你们问到了我们的社区调研数据、新项目进展，还有怎么找到本地资源。大家直来直去、毫无保留的劲儿，我们真的超喜欢！
活动成果收满
- 30多位新朋友订阅了我们的通讯简报
- 奖品全部送出，零剩余
- 团队成员个个累到”原地躺平”，但心里乐开了花
最后，衷心感谢我们的明星志愿者们：Brad Berry、张佳颖、姜震、张文伟、唐毅。你们让神奇成为现实！
