Date: May 24, 2024
Occasion: National Brother’s Day
Origin: Founded by Alabaman Daniel Rhodes
Every year on May 24, National Brother’s Day celebrates the powerful and heartfelt bond between brothers. Unlike National Siblings Day, this is an unofficial holiday, honoring the loyalty, inspiration, and sometimes bittersweet connection of brotherhood.
The word “brother” finds its roots in the Proto-Germanic term brothar, derived from the Proto-Indo-European root bhrater and the Latin frater — all pointing to the deep cultural and historical importance of this unique relationship.
