Created with the purpose of celebrating the bond of friendship in our lives, Friendship Day (also known as International Friendship Day) is observed every year, in many countries, on the 30th of July. According to Wikipedia, the holiday’s date differs in several countries.
To mark this special day and to highlight its importance in promoting the role that friendship plays across all cultures, the UN encourages community groups, organizations, and governments to hold initiatives, activities, and events that promote reconciliation, mutual understanding, and solidarity.
