International Womens Day Word Search

International Women's Day falls on March 8 and traces back to the early 1900s, when labor movements in Europe and the United States held rallies for better pay and the vote. The United Nations began marking the day in 1975, and in Italy it is still common to hand someone a sprig of yellow mimosa. More than two dozen countries treat it as a public holiday.
