Happy International Day Of Charity

Charity contributes to the promotion of dialogue, solidarity and mutual understanding ‎among people.‎

 "Charity plays a significant role in the work of the United Nations and its agencies. On this International Day, I call on people everywhere to act on the charitable impulse that resides in every human being -- to start giving and to keep on giving."

Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
Message for the International Day of Charity, 5 September 2014

 Poverty persists in all countries of the world, ‎regardless of their economic, social and cultural situation, particularly in developing countries.


In recognition of the role of charity in alleviating humanitarian crises and human ‎suffering within and among nations, as well as of the efforts of charitable organizations ‎and individuals, including the work of Mother Teresa, the General Assembly of the ‎United Nations in its resolution A/RES/67/105PDF document designated the 5th of September, the ‎anniversary of the death of Mother Teresa, as the International Day of Charity.‎
On this International Day of Charity, the United Nations invites all Member States and all international and regional organizations, as well as civil society, including non-governmental organizations and individuals, to commemorate the Day in an appropriate manner, by encouraging charity, including through education and public awareness-raising activities.
