We taught Honors Biology classes (freshmen and sophomores) about the liver, HBV and the stigma surrounding it. We also taught about keeping the liver healthy and the importance of being vaccinated to protect oneself. We also recruited new members through our presentations
- We did a "heart plushie sale" to raise money for the Asian Liver fund. We hand-sewed plushie hearts to sell for Valentine's Day and sold to staff and students. It was about $300, which we donated to the Asian Liver center.
