Friendship Thank-You Day

Saturday, Mar 14, 2026 · Cultural

White Day is a holiday celebrated in countries like Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. It is a day when people give small gifts, often sweets or chocolates, to show appreciation and kindness, especially in response to gifts received earlier in the year. Learning about it at school helps students from East Asian cultures feel seen and proud of their traditions. For other students, it builds respect and cultural curiosity, and shows how different cultures express appreciation and friendship.
