National Philanthropy Day 2025

National Philanthropy Day (NPD) is recognized worldwide as a celebration of philanthropy and those who give. In Edmonton, an annual non-competitive awards reception and celebration is held to acknowledge and honour the outstanding achievements of individuals, foundations, corporations, fundraising volunteers and nonprofit organizations who contribute their time, talents, financial support and other resources to our community and beyond. 

Every year, the National Philanthropy Day luncheon allows local charities to share incredible stories about how so many Edmontonians and Northern Albertans make a difference through charitable giving. During the event, each nominee is presented with an award, and a featured story is chosen to represent the incredible diversity and depth of giving we gather to celebrate. 

Our society is better through giving and hearing the work that others in the community are doing. National Philanthropy Day is a celebration that helps to inspire the next person to make a difference.

We look forward to celebrating with you this National Philanthropy Day!
