To celebrate Europe Day, we asked GivingTuesday Leaders across the continent what generosity means to them—in their communities and for Europe's future. #EuropeDay #GivingTuesday Background on Europe Day ❤️ Established in 1985 by the European Council, Europe Day represents one of the core symbols of the EU. Robert Schuman’s proposal aimed at making war between European nations "not only unthinkable but also physically impossible." Brussels, Luxembourg, and worldwide delegations will host events, including open days on May 9, to showcase EU diplomacy and culture.
