“Wonder
Festival” in Gazi
That
was a nice Sunday stroll. In Gazi, the old gas factory of Athens, now
transformed into this magnificent industrial museum, the 1st
volunteering Athens Festival took place.
There
was a big crowd, some driven by curiosity, others by the true will to
offer and others just to take advantage of the last glorious days of
summer. Whichever was their intention, they were all taken by the
tornado of inspiration and offering!50
teams of volunteers, all created by private initiative, were
present and willing to share their dreams and experiences, to be
motivated and empowered, to sensitize us on this gigantic issue of
social contribution.
From
protecting stray animals, abused women and the environment to
assisting minority groups, forming a greener urban landscape and
healing through art, they were all present exchanging ideas and
reassuring each other.
Miracles
DO happen when we believe in them!
