Today is the start of Kwanzaa, which is celebrated every year from December 26^th through January 1^st.  The holiday is a cultural (non-denominational) celebration of African-American heritage.

Like Chanukah, each day an additional candle is lit to observe each of the 7 principles.  On the eve of the final day, December 31^st, a feast is prepared and family and friends play music and make crafts.  These homemade gifts are then given out the following day, January 1^st to recognize the principles of tradition and sharing.

Uniform Advantage wishes all of our customers, employees, and friends who celebrate Kwanzaa a very happy and special holiday!
