August 13th
Left-Handers Day

Left-Handers Day is an annual observance that takes place on August 13th to celebrate left-handedness and raise awareness about the challenges that left-handed people face in a right-handed world. Left-handed people make up around 10% of the population, yet many everyday objects and tools are designed for right-handed use, which can make things more difficult for lefties. Left-Handers Day aims to promote awareness about these challenges and celebrate the unique qualities and abilities of left-handed people. On Left-Handers Day, left-handed people are encouraged to share their stories and experiences, and to connect with other lefties. It is also a day for right-handed people to learn more about the experiences of their left-handed friends and family members and to gain a better understanding of the challenges they face.
