How to Give Back on International Day of Charity: Support with doTERRA Healing Hands
Donna SmithCharity connects us—it brings purpose, compassion, and a sense of community. And every year on 5th September, we pause to honour the International Day of Charity, a global reminder that even small acts of kindness can make a big impact. This day is not only a call to give but an invitation to live generously—something we’re proud to celebrate through the doTERRA Healing Hands Foundation®.
The History of International Day of Charity
The United Nations established the International Day of Charity in 2012, selecting 5th September in honour of Mother Teresa’s passing. Known for her unwavering compassion, Mother Teresa dedicated her life to helping the poor and sick. This global observance inspires individuals and organisations to support charitable causes through donations, volunteering, and acts of service.
