Black Tie International:
International Day of Charity


 

International Day of Charity


The International Day of Charity

 
was established with the objective of
 
sensitizing and mobilizing
 
individuals, NGOs, and other stakeholders around the world
 to act benevolently and help others through volunteering
and philanthropic activities.

 The day is a great opportunity to promote your own activities
and to raise awareness
 about the importance of charity in general.
 Therefore, we would like to ask you to draw the attention of your partners
 to this opportunity and to commemorate the day
by organizing your own initiatives.

 

On December 17 of 2012, the UN General Assembly designated September 5,
the anniversary of the passing away of Mother Teresa, as the
International Day of Charity.
The resolution, introduced by Hungary, enjoyed wide support and was adopted
 by consensus with the co-sponsorship of 44 states representing all regions.

In its resolution, the General Assembly invited Member States, organizations of the United Nations system and other international and regional organizations, as well as civil society to commemorate the International Day of Charity in an appropriate manner, by encouraging charity, including through education and public awareness-raising activities
