National Philanthropy Day is a special day set aside to recognize the great contributions of philanthropy—and those people active in the philanthropic community—to the enrichment of our world. From long-term giving to one-off donations, philanthropy can take many forms. Often considered society's risk capital, it's defined as 'the desire to promote the welfare of others, normally through the generous donation of money to good causes. Thank you for your generosity!
