When is Gold Heart Day?

Every year on January 11.

What is Gold Heart Day?

Gold Heart Day, founded in 1991 by Marsha Rae Ratcliff of Variety International, celebrates acts of kindness while raising awareness for children in need, including those facing childhood cancer. The gold heart symbolizes the inherent value of every person and the ripple effect of compassion. Across communities, people wear gold heart pins, host charity events, and share uplifting gestures.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
