21 Years ago, an 8-year-old girl dreamed it!
Along the way…thousands of kids made it happen!
From the beginning… we parents supported it!
We are grateful … because thousands of people embraced it!
That’s why… we thank them very much!
«Legacy for a better tomorrow»
Voluntary work is an integral part of every culture and society. The general concept is defined as the contribution of individuals in the context of a non-profit, unpaid action, offered in everyone’s free time, with the aim of the well-being of our fellow man, the community, and the society in which we live in general.
Young Volunteers believe that everyone can contribute, regardless of age, social, family and professional obligations. Our association is dominated by the motto “one is above zero”.
