World Humanitarian Day

1 minute of reading

World Humanitarian Day is observed on August 19 to recognize the brave women and men who help people in natural disaster areas. On this day, we commend the courage and dedication of humanitarian aid workers around the globe.  

Here are some ideas to help others in our local communities:

  • Clean out your closets and donate unused items to a local charity. Not only will you be helping others, but decluttering your space will also help boost your mental and emotional well-being. 
  • Make a plan to spread kindness to those around you. Simple gestures of kindness like a smile, a note or an encouraging message, can make someone’s day brighter. 
  • Research and learn about human rights issues around the world and bookmark sources that share objective information.
  • Live every day in gratitude by applying these five tips.
  • Serve your local community by getting involved with your favorite charity, such as a food pantry.
