This week’s cutie is a girl with a heart of gold who will go to the end of the world to help anyone who needs it. She spends her time reading, volunteering at El Centro as a BVol (Bonner Volunteer), crocheting, and watching puppy videos. Any room is immediately lit when she walks in, as it is impossible to not smile with her presence. Meet Yuli!
