About

Ever since we dismissed for spring break, I've been trying to think of something to do with my time that could make a small impact on my community during this crisis. While I was on the phone with my father's senior cousin, I found myself talking about precautions that she should take in order to prevent infection of COVID-19 because she is amongst the most vulnerable population. I told her that I could help her, and her neighbors, purchase and deliver groceries so they wouldn't have to go to the stores and risk getting sick. As I was shopping for them, the question dawned on me of "why can't my friends and I do this for every at-risk person in the community?" My friends didn't hesitate to say yes. So I started "Leave It To Us - Fee Free Senior Citizen Shopping." I am happy to say that since we started, I have received a lot of requests from students all around the Chicagoland area & even nationwide on how to start a chapter of Leave It To Us in their communities. I hope that we continue to grow & are able to service all of Chicagoland & nationwide in the weeks to come. - Michael Arundel
