                               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>
Recognizing the nonprofit sector and the contributions of nonprofit employees, and expressing support for August 17, 2026, to be designated as "National Nonprofit Day".
