What Does #HumanitarianDay Mean?

World Humanitarian Day on August 19th honors aid workers who risk their lives in crisis zones around the globe. The date marks the 2003 bombing of the UN headquarters in Baghdad that killed 22 people, including UN envoy Sergio Vieira de Mello. It is both a tribute to those who have lost their lives in humanitarian service and a call to action for everyone to do something good for someone else.

How to Use #HumanitarianDay

Highlight humanitarian causes, share stories of aid workers, or encourage your followers to donate or volunteer. Nonprofits should use this day to amplify their mission.
