What is National Brother’s Day?
National Brother’s Day honors the unique and irreplaceable bond between brothers—whether it’s a caring older sibling, a playful younger one, or even a brother-like friend. It’s a day to celebrate their love, support, and companionship.
History and Origin
This special day was founded by C. Daniel Rhodes in Alabama. While the exact year is unclear, his idea of celebrating the brotherly bond caught on quickly and has since been embraced globally.
