International Women’s Day

Women's Day has roots going back over 100 years. In 1908, 15,000 women marched in New York City asking for shorter work hours, fair wages, and the right to vote. By 28th February 1909, the first National Women's Day was held by the Socialist Party of America.

Clara Zetkin, a German woman who fought for women's rights, had an idea in 1910. She spoke about it at a meeting for working women held in Copenhagen. Around 100 women from different lands agreed with her. In 1911, on March 8th, the day was first marked in Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland. In 1917, women in Russia marched on March 8th asking for "Bread and Peace" in Petrograd, the capital then. This protest began the February Revolution, which later led to the Russian Revolution in October.

In 1975, the United Nations made March 8th the official International Women's Day. This day is now marked each year around the world to honor women's success, support women's rights, and push for equal treatment.

At home, this day is a time for families to show love and thanks to women—wives, mothers, and sisters—for all the great things they do for their families and the world.
