Service Learning project:
Bike-A-Thon is a project in which families, students, and members of the community ride their bicycles in a designated bicycling tour. The purpose of the project is to fundraise money for Make-A-Wish Foundation. Also its objective is to promote exercise and overall good health. Exercise helps prevent diseases like diabetes, which is predominant in this area. I helped Dr. Nora Montalvo with the organization and promotion of the event, also I helped in the registration process along with 4 students from UTB/TSC. We provided water, snacks, and t-shirts for the participants. More than 30 people attended the event and enjoyed it with their loved ones in a beautiful morning that was full of exercise and excitement.
