The holiday is celebrated every year on the first Saturday in April.
History
Karma is known in many cultures of the world and may have different names. It plays a special role in Hinduism and Buddhism. Karma is a reflection of the law of cause and effect. For example, if a person does bad or good deeds, it is reflected on his karma, forming its positive or negative character.
Tangible Karma Day was made possible by Material Karma, founded in 2005. Founder Amber N. Dilger wanted people to see how karma works in reality. The company focused on recycling and reusing various products. Thanks to their website, people can see which items are most often donated and see how they help others.
Turning in your unwanted items for recycling is a great way to make your home more spacious, help others, and save the environment because recycling reduces the amount of trash you throw away.
