A letter we received from The Chinatown Restaurant: 
To our friends at the Rotary Club,
     We would like to express our heartfelt appreciation for everything we've done. Your MahJong & Poker-themed (Bingo)Event was full of creativity and joy. But what truly moved us was how you all stayed afterwards to help clean and organize. Your attention to detail and willingness to attend to every little task yourselves set a wonderful example for our younger team.  We are are genuinely inspired and encouraged by your spirit.
       We're also deeply grateful for your volunteer work at the Chinatown Night Market....helping maintain order, assisting vendors with transactions, and supporting the community in so many thoughtful ways. As members of the Chinese community, it means a great deal to us to see your genuine care and respect for Chinatown.
     Your outreach and conversations with local students have been deeply inspiring. The way you engage them ....sharing your experiences, offering encouragement, and setting examples of service, shows your sincere commitment to empowering the next generation.
    We look forward to exploring more opportunities to work together in the future. To us you are more than valued guests, you are partners, friends, and truly part of our extended family. Chinatown Restaurant will always be your home.
 
With sincere gratitude and respect,
The Chinatown Restaurant Team
