Points 4 Action is a project where teenagers, between 13 and 19, can go to rest homes for the elderly (Altersheim). There, they talk to them or play games with them and earn points. Every hour, you earn one point, which you can later exchange for cinema tickets, free entrances for climbing or purchases at stores, like Spar and Moser. You can even finance your driving license without paying a cent.<\/p>\n
