All our holidays are validated with sponsors or organizations; or, we  validate the source or origin for an observance to prove it's not made up.
We do not have holidays for every single day of the year. Sites that do, IMHO are making some of their days up.  Beware!
Also, some observances that are validated through website links, can't be updated until their websites update their 2010  information.

Visiting us is free! Our Holiday information is free.   We have always paid all costs and remained ad free as well.
