World Philanthropy Day
World Philanthropy Day is held on November 8. This event in the first decade of the month November is annual. Help us
Every November 8, World Philanthropy Day is celebrated as a sign of commitment to those who work every day to benefit vulnerable populations.
While there are celebrations throughout the month of November-and in some cases, throughout the year-National Philanthropy Day®, or NPD, is officially recognized on November 15. The date was first recognized in the United States by President Ronald Reagan in 1986 through a proclamation (and the hard work of philanthropist and fundraiser Douglas Freeman), and the Canadian Parliament signed a declaration in 2013 celebrating November 15 as NPD in Canada as well.
