World Family Photo Box Day

A day for printed pictures, old phones, albums, names written on backs, and the people a household remembers together.

Dia de los Difuntos

Families visit cemeteries with food, drink, and music, spending the day at the graveside of their loved ones. In Bolivia, you eat with the dead, you drink with the dead, and you tell stories about the dead until everyone is laughing. Grief here has room for joy.

Dia de los Muertos

Less elaborate than in Mexico, but still observed. Families gather, remember loved ones, and share food and stories. The cemeteries fill with flowers and the abuela tells stories about the family members you never met but feel like you know.

Cattle Post Day

The cattle post is where cattle go and where every Motswana's heart follows. Weekends at the cattle post mean open space, fresh air, and the quiet that only comes from being far from the city. Every Motswana who grew up visiting the cattle post knows the smell of morning fire, the sound of cattle lowing, and the peace that no salary can buy.

Observas que los yemeníes tradicionalmente tienen cabras, ovejas y perros como animales domésticos esenciales. ACADA celebra las mascotas del mundo y ayuda a garantizar un mejor cuidado.
