International Left-Handers Day

Summary: International Left-Handers Day is held each year on August 13th. The holiday was launched by the United Kingdom-based Left-Handers Club in 1992. The Left-Handers Club was founded in 1990 to promote research about being left-handed and to spread information about products for left-handed people. The holiday aims to raise awareness about the daily frustrations of being left-handed and encourage companies to make products that are accessible for left-handed people.

What to do: There is no traditional greeting for International Left-Handers Day. The best way to participate is to post online about your left-handedness or offer support for left-handed people.
