International Women’s Day 2026


International Women’s Day (March 8) is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. For 2026, organizers have focused on the critical idea of giving to gain.

Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that’s diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge gender equality.

Today, I invite you to visit this site – https://www.internationalwomensday.com – where you can better understand how, together, we can speed up the rate of progress worldwide.

Each year, Americans across the country answer that question by coming together on the King Holiday to serve their neighbors and communities. To learn more, please visit https://mlkday.gov/ and The King Center.

Ready to Gobble Gobble Give?

Each year, people all across America gather-up on Thanksgiving morning for a few hours to feed the homeless. Some of these efforts are organized by Gobble Gobble Give, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charity where your vital donations are 100 percent tax-deductible. For their upcoming gatherings in Boston, Detroit, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Nashville, NYC, Orange County, and San Diego, participants will bring their own dishes and prepare meals using all the food that comes in (and care packages, too). Then, everyone will hit the streets together to give it all away to homeless men, women, and children.

If you are available to get involved with the Gobble Gobble Give festivities this Thanksgiving, participation only takes a few hours, and it very well might change someone’s life, including yours.

In 2016, the U.S. Department of the Interior produced this presentation where 11 veterans honor all other veterans. This authentic testament powerfully expresses how all of us who have served the country feel about others who have done the same. For yours truly, it is a profound honor to lend my voice to theirs in expressing appreciation to all of those who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces:

Thank you.
