International Day of Older Persons
Today is the International Day of Older Persons! Send a personalized free eCard to the older generations in your life to let them know you're thinking of them. Whether it's a phone call, a quick visit, or a text, today is the perfect day to reach out.
International Day of Older Persons is celebrated every year on October 1st, and was established by the United Nations General Assembly. The holiday was created to recognize the contributions of the elderly, address issues like ageism, and promote a world that supports the active participation of people of all ages.
Happy International Day of Older Persons to all the generations before us! To celebrate, connect with the older people in your life and let them know you're there to help if needed.
