World Greatness Day
August 15, 2025-August 15, 2025 -
USA, USA
World Greatness Day began in 2019, created by Professor Patrick Businge. He wanted a day that highlights the greatness in ordinary people.
His goal wasn’t to focus on fame or big success, but on the everyday strength people show. That could mean kindness, creativity, or simply helping someone without being asked.
Businge officially registered the day through the National Day Archives and chose August 15 as the annual date.
He also founded Greatness University and wrote The Greatness Code, both meant to help people build confidence and self-worth.
The idea behind the day is simple but powerful. Instead of waiting until someone’s gone to say nice things, speak up while they’re around. Say “thank you” to a teacher, a friend, or someone who made life easier.
Over time, the celebration spread across many countries. People use the day to write notes, give small gifts, or just say kind words.
