A guide to celebrating Jul 30th
We start the day off by spreading awareness about human trafficking. Take a moment to educate yourself and others about the signs of trafficking and how to report suspicious activity.
Next up, it’s all about celebrating friendships! Reach out to a friend you haven’t spoken to in a while and plan a fun activity together. Whether it’s a video call, a socially-distanced walk, or a shared meal, cherish the bond you have with your pals.
Now, let’s appreciate our in-laws! Send a thoughtful message or give them a call to show your appreciation. If you’re lucky enough to live close by, consider surprising them with a small gift or invite them over for a visit.
On to National Whistleblower Day. This is the perfect time to stand up for what’s right. Consider researching whistleblower protections and advocates, or simply share a positive story about someone who spoke up against injustice.
For a sweet treat, indulge in some cheesecake to celebrate National Cheesecake Day. If you’re feeling ambitious, try making your own cheesecake at home. Otherwise, pick up a slice from your local bakery and enjoy every creamy bite.
Snuggle up with a good book on Paperback Book Day. Visit a local bookstore or library to discover a new read, or re-read an old favorite. Take some time to escape into the pages and immerse yourself in a different world.
And finally, wrap up the day by sharing hugs with loved ones. Hug your family members, your friends, your pets – anyone who brings joy to your life. Embrace the warmth and connection that a simple hug can bring.
So there you have it, a day filled with awareness, friendship, family, courage, treats, literature, and love. Celebrate these weird national holidays in your own way and make the most of each unique moment.
