nThisnspecial day comes from the Austrian charitable organization JugendnEine Welt – but Austrians would love it to become a worldwidenholiday. The idea is to work toward emergency relief, food, shelter,nclothing, and education for “street children” and other homelessnchildren. Another idea behind the day is to enable young people tonbecome volunteers who can help other youths.
