Think today’s youth aren’t motivated? Think again.

This week more than thirty American Red Cross youth volunteers and youth advisors are traveling all the way to the small town of Solferino, Italy to commemorate and learn from the events that inspired the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement 150 years ago.

They’ll be joining 600 youth representatives from around the world discussing humanitarian challenges of the past, present and future.

You can follow their journey at RedCrossYouth.org.
