Today is National Philanthropy Day. Whether you give of your "time, talent or treasure," you too, can be a philanthropist. The nonprofit sector is comprised of more than 1.5 million charities in the U.S. with another 8.5 million globally. These nonprofits crucially fill societal needs in the areas of education, research, policy development, social services, arts and culture and others to ensure a compassionate, vibrant society. According to studies, nonprofits account for approximately $2.62 trillion or about 5.7% of the U.S. GDP. When you philanthropically support a nonprofit organization, you answer a critical need, contribute to the betterment of society and the economic stability of our Nation. Act philanthropically today and every day! #philanthropy #nationalphilanthropyday
