National Philanthropy Day was conceived in the 1980s, and the first official event was held in 1986 after President Ronald Reagan signed an official NPD proclamation. The day provides an opportunity to reflect on the meaning of giving and all that it has made possible. NPD in San Diego celebrated the endless daily contributions individuals and organizations across the city make to our community.
