International Day of Charity

International Day of Charity is an internationally celebrated day on 5th September. It was first introduced by the United Nations. The day 5th September was chosen to commemorate the passing of Mother Teresa. She was known for her dedication to charitable work and gave her life to helping others and overcoming poverty, suffering and distress. Teaching children about the work of Mother Teresa is one way of recognising the importance of the day.

The aim of the International Day of Charity is to raise awareness and give a platform to charity activities around the world for charitable, individuals and #Volunteer organisations at local, national and international levels.

International Day of Charity seeks to enhance social responsibility and increase public support of charitable causes.

There are so many fun ways to get involved with #InternationalDayOfCharity, whether that be organising your own event to raise money, #Volunteering with a good local cause or simply raising awareness for a charitable organisation. It doesn’t matter how much time or money you have to spare since there are lots of different things to do.
