2 is National Food Bank Day, celebrated since 2017 on the first Friday in September. On this day you are encouraged to contribute to the cause that believes no one should go to bed hungry. Donate and use #NationalFoodBankDay to give your local food bank support and a shout-out on social media.

15 From SEPTEMBER 15 through October 15, we recognize National Hispanic Heritage Month, to honor the contributions made by members of the Hispanic community. Festivities begin on the 15th, the anniversary of independence for Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.

20 National Voter Registration Day on SEPTEMBER 20 urges citizens to register to vote. The National Association of Secretaries of State established the first such day in 2012. It’s every US citizen’s responsibility to vote, but you’ve got to be registered first!

26 is the year’s second National Pancake Day. In addition to surprising your employees with a flapjacks-and-syrup breakfast, the celebration offers the opportunity to serve up some temporary signage to any restaurant in town offering a pancake promotion.
