National Umbrella Month

In the midst of one of the rainiest months of the year, how could we possibly manage without the essential hand-held weather shield? Although a relatively recent celebration, Thomas Edward Knibb initiated National Umbrella Month in March 2013. As the world acknowledged the often-overlooked utility of umbrellas, dedicating an entire month to these handy tools became popular—and we’ve embraced it ever since.

• Host an Umbrella Charity Drive: Support those in need by organizing a community umbrella collection throughout the month. Promote the event with posters and social media, encouraging friends and neighbors to contribute. At month’s end, donate the umbrellas to a local charity that accepts such items.

Why We Love National Umbrella Month

• Versatility of Umbrellas: Whether it’s shielding you from rain as you dash to your car or protecting your eyes from the sun on the golf course, umbrellas are incredibly versatile.
• Skin Protection: Research suggests that carrying an umbrella on sunny days can reduce UV exposure. Black umbrellas, in particular, offer superior protection, but any umbrella is better than none when it comes to sun safety.
• Fashion Forward: Beyond their practicality, umbrellas can also elevate your fashion game. They make excellent props for photoshoots and often appear in fashion shows.
