History of International Friendship Day


In 1958, the international civil organisation, World Friendship Crusade, proposed the celebration of International Friendship Day to foster friendly relations between countries. However, it wasn't until July 30, 2011, that the United Nations officially declared Friendship Day. Since then, this day has been celebrated in various special ways, helping people understand the importance of friendship and increase affection towards one another.
