Context

Men are called to reach out, to support and help each other. This underlines the duty of each of us towards a society in need of education, health and development, especially towards young people, which are part of the vulnerable layer of our society due to the fact they represent the basis of the sustainability of the human kind and nature. Then, the role and importance of those who have become aware of this issue by working towards the management and the sociocultural insertion of youth and the layers of frail people are praiseworthy, in great part because they are genuinely putting together the building blocks to ensure a bright future of those, simply speaking. Just as it is quoted, Any young person who is given an education and a care is one more stone added to the building of the development. We are temporary livings of this world, so let’s give back to it what it owns, namely smile and splendor
