Issued by the United Nations in 1988, this 50-cent commemorative stamp honors International Volunteer Day. The design beautifully portrays three women engaged in traditional craftwork, symbolizing collaboration, empowerment, and the spirit of volunteerism across cultures. Through soft, expressive brushwork, the image reflects the UN’s global mission to encourage community participation and social development. This issue celebrates the essential role volunteers play in building a more compassionate and equitable world.
