The Way to Happiness Youth Club Organizes Community Cleanup for Nashville

Nashville’s “The Way to Happiness” Youth Club is organizing a community cleanup in honor of the United Nations International Day of Friendship. They are inviting others to join them in this effort to keep Nashville clean and beautiful.

The Way to Happiness Youth Club wants to help take care of the world. In Nashville, the youth group is getting together to make a difference by clearing up debris and trash in some of the trouble spots in the city.

Rev. Brian Fesler who serves as regional coordinator for The Way to Happiness Foundation’s Tennessee Chapter says, “It touches my heart to see these young people take The Way to Happiness precepts to heart and want to do something to change the world.”

The Way to Happiness Foundation was formed around the book of the same name by L. Ron Hubbard. The Way To Happiness is comprised of 21 precepts, each one predicated on the fact that one’s survival depends on the survival of others—and that without the survival of others, neither joy nor happiness are attainable.

The precept guiding the cleanup from The Way to Happiness is “Safeguard and Improve Your Environment.” 

According to thewaytohappiness.org, “This code of conduct can be followed by anyone, of any race, color or creed and works to restore the bonds that unite humankind.” The Way to Happiness aims at giving people back a sense of what is right and wrong in a way that is easy to understand. In the two decades since it was authored, some 80 million copies of the book passed hand to hand.

The Way to Happiness Youth Club will be cleaning up neighborhoods near the Fairgrounds next week to honor the United Nations International Day of Friendship.
