About National Women's Friendship Day

When is Women's Friendship Day? This special holiday is observed on the third Sunday in September

National Women’s Friendship Day is a great day for us/you ladies. Women make friends very easily. However, their busy lifestyles often keep them from seeing their BFFs as often as they’d like. And, they have very little time to make new friends. Today’s holiday encourages women to enjoy friends. It’s a great day to be a woman. The objective of this day is to promote special friendships among women. For example, it can be family, friends, or coworkers. 

Ladies have a happy National Women’s Friendship Day!

History and Origin of How to Celebrate Women's Friendship Day

This holiday was created by women, and it is for women. The Kappa Delta Sorority created this very special day in 1999. This sorority, founded in 1897 in Farmville, Va., has over 180,000 members.

We did not find any documentation confirming this to be a “National” day. We found no congressional records or presidential proclamation. The governors of dozens of states have issued proclamations in support of Women’s Friendship on this day.
