Great American Smokeout Day

Celebrated on the third Thursday of November since 1977, the American Cancer Society created this day to make people more aware of the dangers of smoking and assist people in kicking their habit to the curb. Their goal is to someday not even need to have this day because they hope that it will be eliminated all together.
