Now here is a day dedicated just for your sweetie. It exists as an opportunity for you to recognize that sweet and special someone.

They just have to be "sweet" in order to get a little recognition.Herbert Birch Kingston, a Cleveland, Ohio philanthropist and candy company employee started Sweetest Day. He wanted to bring happiness to orphans, shut-ins and under-privileged. His intent was to show these people that they were not forgotten. In 1922, he started this holiday by giving candy and small gifts. He often used movie stars to distribute the gifts.
