Tzu Chi volunteers again participated in decorating the Donate Life Rose Parade float,
this year themed “The Never-Ending Story.” The float, coordinated by organ recovery
organization OneLegacy, featured portraits honoring seventy-two deceased organ donors,
including late New York Tzu Chi volunteer Sandy Lo, known to many as “Luo Mama.”

Recently, volunteers in many areas
have been actively reaching out to local
residents and business owners to intro-
duce Tzu Chi and its community services.
On November 30, 2014, volunteers vis-
ited the Little India district of Artesia,
California, to share Tzu Chi's philosophy
of Great Love and encourage more people
to do good deeds.

Braving the cold and wind,
volunteers and Tzu Shao
went out on the streets of
New York to promote Tzu
Chi Good Health Day on
November 2, 2014—an
event in which medical
professionals provided
medical services and
consultations to the
community. Two weeks
later, they were out again,
inviting community
members to a blood
donation drive held jointly
with New York Blood Center.
