International Day of Charity 2021

Introduction

We will run out of words if we were to write to paras signifying the importance of charity in society. The concept of charity is synonymous with feelings of empathy and sympathy, the value that it adds to social bonding is immense. Expecting an interaction between different societal classes on an equal basis is almost childishly foolish unless there exists a relationship between members of these different classes.

A relationship that honours core values like inclusiveness, equality, integrity, and compassion to name a few. The role of charity in creating such a relationship is pivotal, and to commemorate that role, an international day of charity is celebrated every year. And that’s what we are going to talk about in this discussion! If this is the first time you have heard about this day, there is plenty for you to learn from this discussion, we can assure you that!

When is the international day of charity?

Before we bore you with a history lesson, let us reveal the date on which international day of charity is celebrated every year. Drum rolls. It is celebrated on the fifth of every September, and the reason why it is celebrated on the aforementioned day will make your heart full of joy! The date was chosen to commemorate the anniversary of the passing away of Mother Teresa.

There couldn’t have been a more suitable candidate to name the day after, we are all indebted to Mother Teresa for her efforts in making this world a better place for the underprivileged community. Not that her noble work needs any validations or medals, but it is pertinent to mention here that Mother Teresa received a Nobel Prize for peace in the year 1979. Nice knowing about one date which has two-fold historical value, don’t you agree?
