National Day of Encouragement is celebrated on September 12 to remind us the power of words and how a little support can go a long way.
This day urges people to uplift each other, to spread positivity, and acknowledge how simple words of encouragement or even a gesture can create a huge difference in someone's life.
This day also helps us remember that everyone deserves kindness and a little boost helps everyone now and then.
