international day of charity
Charity is helping others, giving to the poor and yes it starts from home. The concept of charity now has been blurred. Very few people come forward and help others.
Charity helps and supports those people who are in need. It allows us to think wide and reach into different society. No doubt, this day promote and recognise charity and motivate people to help poor and needy person. This day also focuses on the role played by several charitable organisations around the world and actions that have created more inclusive and resilient societies.
“The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.”-— Mother Teresa
International Day of Charity: History
The International Day of Charity officially was declared by the UN General Assembly in 2012. Also, this day was created by the Hungarian Civil society initiative in 2011 with the support of the Hungarian parliament and Government. 5 September is selected as the Date to celebrate the International Day of Charity because this date commemorates the anniversary of passing of Mother Teresa who worked tirelessly for the people who are in need, to overcome poverty, distress and suffering of the poorest in the world.
