National Philanthropy Day is the special day set aside to recognize and pay tribute to the great contributions that philanthropy -- and those people active in the philanthropic community -- have made to our lives, our communities and our world. Celebrations are held annually in many states across the nation.

The 2012 National Philanthropy Day in Colorado will be celebrated on November 9, 2012 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver Colorado.
