Did you know .. interesting facts about Boxing Day ✨
Despite the name, Boxing Day has nothing to do with boxing 🥊
Traditionally, Boxing Day began as a day of charity and giving.
In medieval England, churches opened alms boxes after Christmas and distributed money to the poor.
Wealthy households also gave their servants and tradespeople a “Christmas box” ; gifts or money as a thank you for their work throughout the year.
Boxing Day is also the Feast of St Stephen, a Christian martyr closely associated with helping those in need, which further tied the day to generosity.
Today , Boxing Day is a public holiday and evolved into what many of us know today… family time, sport, and shopping sales — but its roots are all about kindness and giving back ❤️
Happy Boxing Day .. ✨💕✨
