Father’s Day was first celebrated in the United States when hundreds of men died in a mining mishap on July 5, 1908, in West Virginia, USA. The daughter of a dedicated reverend, Grace Golden, proposed a Sunday service for all the men who lost their lives in the accident.

A few years later, Sonora Smart Dodd suggested the idea of observing Father’s Day in the honor of her father, William Jackson Smart. Dodd’s father, who was a civil war veteran, raised her and her five siblings as a single parent. She started promoting Father’s Day at a national level after she completed her education. Father’s Day started gaining popularity in the US when President Richard Nixon signed a declaration in the year 1972. And since then, Father’s Day is celebrated every year on the third Sunday of June.
