History

World Smile Day is actually celebrated in remembrance of Harvey Ball, a commercial artist from Worcester, Massachusetts. He is the one who created the famous smiley symbol we use daily in chats, comic books, clothing, pins, coffee mugs, and much more to represent a smile. It was created way back in 1963 and is world famous for its representation of “smile” with a yellowish face. He wanted to dedicate a day to this concern as he wanted to make people aware of the importance of smiling. Hence he declared the first Friday of every October would be “World Smile Day” in 1999. After his death in 2001, “Harvey Ball World Smile Foundation” was created to honour his name and memory which continues to sponsor and make initiatives to spread the importance of smile and happiness in our lives!
