FORT GREENE, Brooklyn (WABC) -- Young people from across the Tri-State Area will come together for a powerful event called "WE Day," part of a movement aimed at empowering youth to be a force for change in their communities and the world.
"WE Day" rewards students for giving back during the We Movement service-learning program, which asks participating schools to undertake one local and one global initiative during the course of the year.
