Thanksgiving Potluck at The Treehouse

Before we all headed off in our own directions for the holidays, the "Treehouse" hosted a pre-thanksgiving potluck! A BIG thank you goes out to the residents of the Treehouse (Krista, Jaqui, Natalie, & Elaine) for having all of us EYEnsteins over! It was fun to gather outside of the classroom and enjoy some yummy food together! Can our class cook or what?! Everything tasted AMAZING! 

The class cabinet is THANKFUL for all you EYEnsteins for being such a wonderful class. We love serving you guys! Can't wait to see you all back in a week. Enjoy the well deserved break!!!

Happy Thanksgiving and safe travels everyone!

Care Harbor 2013

A couple of weekends ago, a group of us 2017-ers volunteered for Care Harbor LA. 

Care Harbor LA provides free medical, dental, and vision care, along with prevention resources and follow-up care to thousands of uninsured, underinsured, and at risk individuals and families. This event lasted for four days and transformed the Los Angeles Sports Arena into the largest free clinic in California. 

Many patients waited hours and hours for a chance to be seen and were extremely grateful for the services we could provide them. It was truly an incredible, rewarding experience. Although the event fell on a busy weekend (right before finals - yikes!), it was the best study break we could have asked for :)

Hope to see more of you out for next year's Care Harbor LA event!
