Anna Jarvis
(1864-1948)
Mother's Day originated(起源于)in the United States.
On May 9, 1906, Anna Jarvis's mother died in great sorrow.
On the anniversary(周年纪念)of her mother‘s death the following year, Miss Anna organized activities to remember her mother and encouraged others to express their gratitude to their mothers in a similar way. Since then, she has lobbied(游说) and appealed(呼吁) to all sectors(方面) of society for the establishment(建立) of Mother’s Day. Her appeal received a warm response(回应). On May 10, 1913, the United States Senate(参议院) and House of Representatives(众议院) passed a resolution(决议), signed by President Wilson, deciding that the second Sunday of May each year is Mother's Day.
By the time Anna died in 1948, 43 countries had established Mother's Day.
