Its a chance to acknowledge the personal power we each have as individuals to help preserve world peace and make a real difference. Since 1973 many people have taken part, including 31 winners of the Nobel Peace Prize. Why not add your name to the list? Give the gift of a heartfelt greeting to someone in your community; its a much more lasting present than the perfume set you got on a three for two at Boots.
You say hello
The objective of World Hello Day is pretty simple and its easy to get involved. All you have to do to show your support is to say hello to at least 10 new people on Nov. 21st. The idea is that by greeting others you are sending a message to world leaders to use communication rather than violence to settle conflicts.
