About Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day is a celebration honoring mothers, motherhood, and the profound influence mothers have on families and society. Its roots lie in ancient festivals honoring mother goddesses, but the modern Mother’s Day was spearheaded by Anna Jarvis in the early 20th century. She campaigned tirelessly to establish a holiday recognizing mothers after her own mother, a community organizer, passed away.
Her efforts were successful, with the US officially recognizing Mother’s Day in 1914. Today, it’s celebrated globally, typically on the second Sunday of May in the US and on varying dates worldwide. Celebrations often include gift-giving, cards, special meals, and acts of appreciation towards mothers and mother figures.
