Hi Everyone!

Yesterday's event at Wen Wen BK was as huge success! Registered 204 swab kits! (Which we were told was a new record for them in any 1 event.  We probably would have registered more if we didn't run out of kits 3/4ths of the way, or run out of time.)  

We had people lined out the door!  For those of you who attended/volunteered at the event - Thank you SO MUCH for coming and for your patience - I know that there were times we were a bit overwhelmed and some of you were left waiting 😟.   Your kindness and sincerity did not go unnoticed.  It was the first time I met many of you and the amount of love you shared in loving/supporting Caryn made me want to bawl non-stop (again, sorry for the awkwardness 😅).  Not sure if you guys all saw but Caryn too watched the event live - she even joined in for a few.  When she heard the news she had a megawatt smile plastered on her face (with tears welling in her eyes).  I know we repeatedly share how grateful we are but no amount of thanks will ever be able to truly communicate how appreciative we are of all of you.

New update alert!

Despite yesterday's success we don't have time to stop.  We have an amazing opportunity to work with @EvelynYang and piggyback on a rally she has been working on with @nubcnyc.  Details have yet to be finalized for where we will set up our table/booth.

These are the things we do know - 

what: 2nd SWABFORCARYN NY Donor Event (in collaboration with the STOP THE CHINATOWN MEGAJAIL MARCH)
when: Sunday, March 2022 | Time: TBD (the rally starts @1PM - ideally we'd like to set the booth up at the end of the rally where the speeches take place ETA ~2PM)
where: COLUMBUS PARK | More specific details to come.  Will update you as soon as we can.

We are in need of volunteers! If you are available to help out please DM us @swabforcaryn (Instagram) - Last year NUBCNYC's event had approximately 10,000 attendees!
