National Nonprofit Day
August 17, 2025-August 17, 2025 -
USA, USA
National Nonprofit Day focuses on the essential contributions of nonprofit organizations across various sectors. Sherita J. Herring, a passionate philanthropist and business strategist, established this day in 2017.
She recognized that nonprofits are often the backbone of communities, providing vital services in areas like education, health, and social justice.
Herring chose this specific day to honor the signing of the Tariff Act of 1894, which first granted tax exemptions to nonprofits.
This legislative milestone helped shape the future of charitable organizations in the United States, allowing them to grow and serve even more people.
