RES. 1484 Recognizing the nonprofit sector and the contributions of nonprofit employees, and expressing support for August 17, 2026, to be designated as ``National Nonprofit Day''. _______________________________________________________________________ IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES August 17, 2026 Ms. McCollum (for herself, Mr. Thompson of Pennsylvania, Mr. Case, Ms. Norton, and Mr. Thanedar) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform _______________________________________________________________________ RESOLUTION Recognizing the nonprofit sector and the contributions of nonprofit employees, and expressing support for August 17, 2026, to be designated as ``National Nonprofit Day''. Whereas there are 1,300,000 nonprofits across the United States that feed, heal, shelter, educate, nurture, and inspire people of all ages; Whereas nonprofit organizations are the Nation's third-largest employer, employing more than 12,000,000 people and representing 5.6 percent of the United States overall gross domestic product; Whereas 92 percent of nonprofits are small and community-based, serving local needs; Whereas nonprofits are trusted community touchstones and allies in designing and implementing the work of government; Whereas, without nonprofit partners, Federal programs would be run less efficiently and require more taxpayer dollars; and Whereas August 17, 2026, would be an appropriate date to designate as ``National Nonprofit Day'': Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives-- (1) recognizes the contributions of nonprofits and nonprofit workers; (2) supports the designation of ``National Nonprofit Day''; and (3) recognizes the benefits nonprofits bring to communities across the United States. <all>
