International Day of Families quotes: Celebrate the love for family with these wishes

The International Day of Families is observed on 15 May every year and is celebrated to promote awareness regarding issues related to families and the awareness about social, economic, and demographic effects on a family. This day was proclaimed by the UN General Assembly in 1993 so as to dedicate the whole day to families and appreciate their importance. Since 1994, May 15 is celebrated as Family Day.

The UN also assigns a theme every year on the occasion of International Day of Families, and the cause for last year was Families in Development: Copenhagen & Beijing + 25. The theme of this year hasn't been revealed yet. Here are a few International Day of Families quotes, which you can send to your family members and close ones.
