Independence Day & National Fry-An-EggOn-The-Sidewalk Day

Aunt & Uncle Day

Finally a day for the best relatives- aunts and uncles! While not everyone may have an aunt or uncle, most everyone has that adult in their life who

supports your parents, loves you unconditionally and spoils you beyond belief. Make sure to thank the adults in your life who love you!

July 30

International Day of Friendship

The world is filled with too much hatred, too much fighting and too much mistrust of others. The International Day of Friendship is certainly an opportunity to stop, and to reverse, these worldwide problems.

According to the United Nations, the official sponsor of this special day, the International Day of Friendship is day set aside to promote friendship among peoples, cultures and countries. Today

is a time to encourage efforts towards peace, and to build bridges among different people. It is a day of respect for others, and a day to celebrate diversity.

According to the United Nations, on this day people, groups and governments should hold events and activities to promote mutual understanding and reconciliation.

On an individual level, use this day to promote friendship in big and small ways. You can begin by “extending an olive branch” to a sibling or a family member, a neighbor, or an old friend who we’ve had a falling out with. If we all try just a little the world will be a friendlier, more peaceful place.
