Today (first Friday in October) is World
Smile Day®.
Harvey Ball, a commercial artist from Worcester, Massachusetts
created the smiley face in 1963. He worried the world lost sight of
the meaning of his famous smiley face and thought that we all should
devote one day each year to smiles and kind acts. It began in 1999
and has continued every year around the world. Ball passed away in
2002, but 'Harvey Ball World Smile Foundation' was created to honor
his name and memory. The Foundation continues as the official
sponsor of World Smile Day® each year. Do an act of
kindness and make someone smile today.
