Let's celebrate World NGO Day in South America
Each year World NGO Day is celebrated on February 27th from Argentina, Bolivia to Brazil, and other countries.
The universal concept of the World NGO Day is to Celebrate, Commemorate and Collaborate - the various NGOs around the world, and the people behind them that contribute to society all year around.
World NGO day honours the nonprofit organisations and volunteers who give their time and resources to help make a difference.
World NGO day aims to celebrate the successes of the more than ten million NGOs worldwide and to allow many small grassroots organisations to gain the recognition they deserve.
The tremendous work of NGOs around the world is needed more than ever today. The European Commission will continue to support them in carrying out this crucial work without fear. #WorldNGOday
On World Non-Governmental Organisation Day, celebrated on 27 February, the European Union applauds the fundamental contribution made by civil society organisations.
February 27 is an important day for civil society. We mark World NGO Day during which we celebrate the various NGOs around the world.
