National Siblings Day (also referred to as Sibling Day) is observed on April 10. It is a day created to honor your brother(s) and/or your sister(s).
Spend some time with your siblings if you have any and use #NationalSiblingsDay to post on social media.
National Siblings Day was founded by native New Yorker, Claudia Evart in 1995 to honor and celebrate siblings. After losing her two siblings early in life in separate accidents, she knew how important siblings can be in our lives.
Claudia created the Siblings Day Foundation (SDF), a tax-exempt organization, whose goals included the establishment of National Siblings Day. Claudia selected April 10 in honor of her late sister, Lisette’s birthday. Visit the website for more National Siblings Day information at https://www.siblingsday.org/.
