Because of you
I want to take this opportunity to thank Red Room volunteers. (Alison Gao, Lily Hung, Chamber Lai, Kristin Smith, Max Power, Alexandra Gilliam, Christiana Chien, Shameez Joubert, Erin Vasseur, Trevor Trebotski Tortomasi, Ruth Giordano, Sue DeSimone, Carol Yao, Jennifer Joy, Manav Mehta, Roma Mehta, Meghan Keller, Francis Maginn, Addison Eng, Leah List, Julia Kao, Vicky Sun, Warde Khalaf, Kristie Young, Claire Linn, William Openshaw, Sharon Landon, Ana Culiolis, Emily Loftis, JJ Chen, Stephanie Chen, Charles Haines, Andrew Quirk, Alex Houghton, James Lo, Constance Woods, Ayesha Mehta, and so many more).
Ayesha and I co-founded Red Room, however, the real driving force behind Red Room’s success is Roma, the Keeper of the Faith, Manav, Red Room Reeves, and many Red Room volunteers.
Red Room is a space to celebrate deep listening, spoken words and creative expression. Most importantly, Red Room is a listening community. The world needs us to be something bigger than ourselves. Human being needs to be part of a community.
“Have you participated in a community?”“Have you volunteered for a group that shares your value and cause?”“What can I contribute today?”
I encourage people to start their own movement if they are passionate and serious about something. The best way to achieve this is to join a movement you believe in by being a volunteer first. This might be the best way to become part of a community. Unwavering generosity brings us closer together.
Because of you, the Red Room Volunteers, Red Room flourishes. Because of you, Red Room is a community. Because of you, we are able to create in a space that is welcoming.
Ping Chu is the co-founder of the Red Room.
