International Volunteering Day is celebrated every year on December 5th, with the purpose to both encourage and value volunteer service worldwide. The United Nations proclaimed it in December, 1985 and in 2020 the theme gained a unique connotation due to the national and global challenges we are facing. 

Once again, in the history of humanity, solidarity proved to be a crucial coordination for human survival, which showed that without the mutual support we would not resist as a species.
