Just like that here comes November. It’s the last month of autumn and the last month before Christmas! Indeed, we’re enjoying the last of the autumnal colors as we bring you our monthly roundup of what to share on social media in November. We take pride in enabling marketers, entrepreneurs, bloggers and anyone to create designs and mockups. So, we do hope we’ve helped to make your life easier.

NB: Each template is customizable to the size of the social media channel of your choice. Simply click on “Templates” in menu on the left of your design and select which social media post/design size you’d like.

With that, let’s get the ball rolling for November!

1. World Vegan Month

First, we have World Vegan Month. It’s is celebrated in November every year to commemorate “the coining of the term, ‘vegan’ and the founding of The Vegan Society in November 1944”. Kickstarting November with World Vegan Day on 1 November, World Vegan Month is a time to “recognise and celebrate the positive effect plant-based living can have on our planet and to our health”.

2. National Caregivers Appreciation Month

This November is also National Caregivers Appreciation Month. This is “a time to honor the people who give freely of their time and resources in the service of others”. Caregiving for a family member or loved one is often a round-the-clock job. That has an impact, sometimes a significant one, on the caregiver’s life as well. Thus, let’s remember to thank them for everything they do on social media in November.

3. National Author’s Day – 1 November

4. Diwali – 4 November

5. Veterans Day – 11 November

11 November is the day to pay respects to all the military veterans who have served. Veterans Day “originated as “Armistice Day” on Nov. 11, 1919, the first anniversary of the end of World War I”. Veterans Day is mostly celebrated in the US. Nevertheless, we think it’s a good time to recognize the sacrifices and show our love to all who have served to thank them for all that they have done.

6. World Kindness Day – 13 November

The Cambridge dictionary defines ‘kind’ as “generous, helpful, and thinking about other people’s feelings”. On 13 November, it’s the day to celebrate “the importance of being kind to each other, to yourself, and to the world.” Recently, there’s a lot of division in society. Hence, we think it’s especially important to celebrate being kind.

7. International Tolerance Day – 16 November

International Tolerance Day is aimed at “fostering mutual understanding among cultures and peoples”. Commemorated since 1996, the “UN General Assembly adopted Resolution 51/95”, which “affirms that tolerance is neither indulgence nor indifference”. As ToleranceDay.org puts it, “we need to change the way people think and work towards a sustainable future”. We couldn’t agree more!

8. Universal Children’s Day – 20 November

First established in 1954, Universal Children’s Day promotes “international togetherness, awareness among children worldwide, and improving children’s welfare”. With recent times showing us how inequality has affected every child’s rights from “climate change, education and mental health, to ending racism and discrimination”, now’s the time to stand together with children and young people around the world for a better future.
