National Good Samaritan Day
On March 13th, the unselfish behavior of those who provide assistance when needed is recognized on National Good Samaritan Day. In all its variations, the day is also known as Good Samaritan Involvement Day and honors kindness.
The word "good Samaritan" comes from a Bible parable where a Samaritan helped a stranger who had been robbed and beaten and left dead by the side of the road. Not only cleaned the man's wounds and clothed him, but escorted him to an inn where he paid for the man's care.
Many that are strangers perform acts of kindness for those in need. Today, the word is used to describe those who do acts of kindness for those in need.

History of samaritan day has a national good samaritan day
This day in New York City, Catherine "Kitty" Genovese's death was commemorated, according to our study. She was killed near her house on March 13, 1964. Miss Genovese would have lived if one Good Samaritan had stepped forward that night. Each time she was interrupted by neighbors or passersby, something interrupted her killer twice that night. No one called the cops, but no one called the cops. One individual called after his third and fruitful attempt, but Miss Genovese was too late. We are unable to identify the maker of this national day.
