This Tuesday, February 27th, commemorates World NGO Day. The day is an international recognition of the tireless and compassionate work that non-governmental organizations (NGOs) across the world undertake to combat poverty and inequality. This day celebrates not just NGOs themselves, but also the vision for a better world and happier humanity that often unites them. While NGOs cannot permanently fix the world’s problems, they work on the frontlines to fundamentally change people’s lives.
