Idaho Human Rights Day

Idaho Human Rights Day

Idaho Human Rights Day is observed on the third Monday in January every year. The day is a holiday in the state of Idaho. It is a day to celebrate the birthday of civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr.

M.L.K. was born on January 15, 1929, in Atlanta, as the second child of Martin Luther King Sr.

We use this day to honor his achievements and celebrate diversity. There was a time when we considered diversity and a minority population to be weaknesses rather than strengths. Now, things are different, thanks to great people like King, and the change he inspired among the entire U.S. population.

Big Garden Birdwatch

Posted on by Tamkeen Kiani

Big Garden Birdwatch falls on the last weekend of January every year, and we’re going to show you how you can best observe this year’s watch. Do you know that it has been more than 110 years since the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds R.S.P.B. was created? Big Garden Birdwatch was a project initiated in the United Kingdom that aimed to raise awareness about the protection of endangered species, especially certain birds. Oftentimes, these species are driven out of their natural habitat due to interference from human beings. Big Garden Birdwatch is a wildlife survey organized to motivate everyone to take steps for the protection of these species and their habitat by counting and keeping track of birds in your garden.

National Vision Board Day

Posted on by Tamkeen Kiani

National Vision Board Day is celebrated annually on the second Saturday in January, on January 10 this year, to encourage us to set our goals visually. The day seeks to help us to reimagine and achieve goals in every area of life by effectively visualizing them to life. It is based on “seeing is believing” in the sense that if we can imagine — picture — something, we can move our lives towards that goal. The day was inspired by a group of friends who came together in 2010 to set goals and dream big life dreams in a fun and creative setting.
