Philanthropy Day

Philanthropy Day

When : Always November 15th

National Philanthropy Day is today. Over the course of history, Philanthropists have made great contributions to those in need, and to worthy causes.

According to the official National Philanthropy Day website, this day is set aside to ""recognize and pay tribute to the great contributions that philanthropy – and those people active in the philanthropic community – have made to our lives, our communities and our world.""

Great philanthropist are known in history for their many and frequent monetary contributions, big and small. Many of them do so in a quite way, not looking for recognition.

While we commonly view Philanthropy as a monetary contribution, the voluntary efforts at fund raising is also within the definition of philanthropy. So, if you have little extra money to contribute, you can turn your labor effort into charitable cash contributions by participating in fundraisers, making you a Philanthropist!

Read a Book Day
On Read a Book Day, the world slows down as people immerse themselves in new worlds and adventures between the pages of their favorite books. The smell of old paper and the sound of turning pages fill the air, creating a sense of comfort and escape from the chaos of everyday life.
