The main goal of this holiday is to attract public attention to the activities of various charitable organizations and the work of volunteers. The holiday was timed to coincide with the anniversary of the death of Mother Teresa, who was widely known throughout the world. On this day, many volunteer associations and non-profit charitable organizations hold promotions, meetings and events dedicated to the holiday.
Punctuality is in fashion these days, but there are situations that make it impossible to arrive at your destination on time.

The holiday correlates with the Christian day of remembrance of the passion-bearer Lupus of Thessalonica. Loop was popularly called Lingonberry, because women and children went to the forest to pick berries on that day. Lingonberries become tasty only after the first frost, which has already happened by this point. That is why September 5 was sometimes called the Lupine frost.
