An initiative of Love Our Children USA, this special day is celebrated annually on the first Saturday of every April to honor children, strengthen families and raise awareness for efforts to keep children safe.
National Love Our Children Day is like Mother's and Father's Day for children and is celebrated across the U.S. It is a celebration of children and was created to acknowledge the value of children and to educate parents on the importance of giving them love, protection and respect, the three essential elements children need to become strong and successful adults. By promoting healthy and happy children and strengthening families through the support of our nation's communities, we can keep kids safe.
Ross Ellis, Founder and Chief Executive Officer said "we urge all parents, families and communities to take time to honor children on each year on the first Saturday of April! Whether you're a parent or not, children touch your heart in some way. We all have children in our lives, whether it's a son or daughter, relative, friend or neighbor's child. What greater purpose does a person have than to help protect respect, honor and celebrate a child? What is more powerful than the realization that a child needs my love?"
