May Holidays
Sunday, May 10th - Mother’s Day
Tuesday, May 12th - International Nurses Day
Monday, May 25th - Memorial Day
Tuesday, May 26th - Eid al-Adha
In honor of community, our May holidays are about family and service.
Mothers day was last weekend. It is truly the role that serves every human, as... we all came from a mother. Everyone has a mother, If you are lucky to have a mom still around, give her a call. If you are a mom, take a nice breather and enjoy your hard work! :)
May 12th is International Nurses day. Nurses don't get enough recognition. If you know a nurse, send them a message. We really lean on them (literally) for the nitty gritty and the big stuff.
May 25th is Memorial Day. Although it is a day that we begin our summer weather, it is still a day to commemorate and remember those that have served our country.
May 26th is Eid-al-Adha: This is a holiday celebrated in honor of Abraham, on his devotion and faith, when he was "tested" to sacrifice his son. It is a holiday that is celebrated by Muslims, by distributing food and clothing to the less fortunate, while gathering with family for gratitude.
