为了应对目前社区中上述现象日趋严重，Anshul和Ayush组织了Sponsor-A-Basket这一活动来为Food Pantry捐助食物，当CAAL得知这一募捐活动之后，决定支持“Sponsor-A-Basket”的项目，并纳入CAAL Youth Program，同时，支持匹配500美元，鼓励项目能够得到更多来自社区的支持，在短短几天时间内总共募集了3000美金的捐助，远远超出当时活动策划时的预期！

在“菜篮子”项目之前，今年的”莱镇华协社区建设奖”以最高级别授予镇食品救济中心，华协已资助镇食品救济中心$5000以支持其在新冠疫情中的重要运作和贡献。

这次作为Sponsor-A-Basket莱克星顿分站CAAL Youth Program，由Daniel Xiang和Kyrie Ma二名LHS的高中生负责本次分站活动。Arun Kodumuru、Christian Han、Neo Chen和Ellen Wang等学生也纷纷加入进来。

Speaker: Angela Sauvage, future-focused marketer, International women’s network lead Description: Many leading companies utilize competency models in defining roles, and measure performance within organizations. Critical competencies such as conflict management, emotional intelligence, and dealing with ambiguity are extremely challenging for young professionals. Angela has observed this firsthand through her leadership in various international mentor programs, and she will share her insights on the essential core competencies companies are in search of and discuss with parents and young adults how to build these competencies early on.
