Every September 5th is set aside as International Day of Charity
.


"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

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

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/67/105
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.
