In the speech delivered at the certificate distribution ceremony for the most dedicated volunteers of the year, Veliaj said that Tirana is a good example of volunteering, which has been shown in cases of natural disasters, such as earthquakes or pandemics.
"Being a volunteer is not a question of a country that has or a country that does not have income, it is not even a question of the possibilities of those who have a lot of money or little money. "Volunteering never goes out of fashion and I am super proud of each of you, who have given an hour, a day, a week, or even a single activity as a volunteer to the Municipality of Tirana and our city," said Veliaj.
"It's very important to do well in school - that's your main job, but I believe that apart from being a good student, being a good boy, a good girl, being a good citizen is just as important. Next year we will again have needs in our social centers, in children's homes, so we welcome your help, also to help people with disabilities, grandparents who need love and respect and the gratitude that comes from your heart, Veliaj added.
