International Microvolunteering Day
Not everyone has the time to volunteer regularly, or perform large acts of service. But microvolunteering allows you to give back anyway.
Your guide to every national day and holiday on April 15

Not everyone has the time to volunteer regularly, or perform large acts of service. But microvolunteering allows you to give back anyway.





















Why not kick off your day with a blast from the past by watching a classic Canadian film? Get comfy, grab some popcorn and immerse yourself in some homegrown cinematic talent. Next, indulge in an animated adventure on National Anime Day. Connect with characters and storylines that resonate with you, and embrace the creativity of the anime world. Feeling inspired by art? Take a moment to tap into your creative side on World Art Day. Grab some paper and your favorite art supplies, and let your imagination run wild. As you dive into different themes, consider reflecting on cultural diversity on Universal Day of Culture. Explore different traditions, cuisines, and practices to broaden your horizons.
In between activities, show gratitude for those who have made a difference in the world, like Father Damien. Consider ways to support youth in need on Youth Homelessness Matters Day, or raise awareness for important causes like type 1 diabetes. Need a break? Have a laugh and celebrate National That Sucks! Day by sharing funny stories or watching a comedy. And don’t forget to treat yourself – whether it’s munching on a glazed spiral ham or biting into a banana on their respective days.
Wrap up your day by giving back in simple ways, such as micro-volunteering, or expressing appreciation for American Sign Language on National ASL Day. Remember, it’s the little moments that make a day truly special, so embrace the unexpected twists and turns. Who knows, maybe you’ll find a new favorite holiday along the way.
