International Day of Friendship
The International Day of Friendship is celebrated annually on 30 July with the idea that friendship between people, countries, and cultures can inspire peace efforts and build bridges between communities. The Friendship Day was originally created by the greeting card industry and was promoted by Joyce Hall, the founder of Hallmark cards in 1919, then proclaimed by the United Nations’ General Assembly.
This day is observed not only on the recognition of friendship in the general sense but also its relevance and noble value that friendship has in the sentiment and lives of human beings around the world. Today, our world faces many challenges, crises, and forces of division like poverty, violence, and human rights abuses among many others that undermine peace, security, development, and social harmony among the people.
