Origin of Father's Day
Father's Day originated in the early 20th century in the United States, initially advocated by Mrs. Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, Washington. Mrs. Dodd's mother passed away when she was young, and her father raised six children alone. To express her respect and love for her father, she hoped there could be a holiday like Mother's Day to express gratitude to fathers. With the help of a pastor and the support of the local government, the world's first Father's Day was held on June 19, 1910, in Washington State. After years of effort, it wasn't until 1972 that U.S. President Nixon signed a congressional resolution officially designating the third Sunday in June as Father's Day nationwide.
Why the Third Sunday in June?
The date of Father's Day being set on the third Sunday in June each year is mainly related to Mrs. Dodd's advocacy. Her father, William Smart, had his birthday in June, so her initial proposed date for Father's Day was June 5th (her father's birthday). However, due to rushed preparations, it was eventually postponed to the third Sunday in June. This date was later widely accepted and became the fixed date for many countries internationally to celebrate Father's Day, commemorating all fathers who work hard for their families.
