Why do we celebrate it? 

Global Love Day was introduced by non-profit organization The Love Foundation. The team proposed Global Love Day on behalf of its founder Harold Becker in 2004. The yearly observance was developed to encourage unity among people, communities, nations, and to celebrate humanity through unconditional love. This global event is marked to be a symbolic day of unconditional love.

The Love Foundation's very first theme on Global Love Day was Love Begins With Me. Over the past fifteen years, The Love Foundation has grown into a global family of individuals who have made the spreading of love their responsibility. Today, there are currently over 300 gratuitous love ambassadors fording across 41 countries. 

Happy Global Love Day wishes -
