"text": "Never Give Up Day is a \"global celebration focused on cultivating a mindset of determination.\" It celebrates the perseverance and determination that helps people get through life's difficult challenges. Never Give Up Day celebrates those who don't quit or don't have an option to. It applauds those who transcend their failures and encourages those who go through struggle or recovery. It celebrates the achievements and contributions of people whose stories inspire others to keep fighting and not give up. It acknowledges the resilience and determination of millions who never give up—those who are reaching for dreams, fighting illness, getting over someone who has died, or fighting in another way.\nNever Give Up Day also educates and encourages the public on issues of a global scale, like climate change and poverty. Never Give Up Day encourages the creation of awareness-raising activities like sporting events, runs and walks for charity, community programs, and workshops. Fundraising events and calls to action are led by organizations, charities, and healthcare and social associations.\nNever Give Up Day is held on the anniversary of the date in 2012 when quadruple amputee and French swimmer Philippe Croizon completed a swim across four straits between five continents. It was later discovered that it was also on this date in 1845 that a newspaper published what might be the oldest usage of the phrase \"Never Give Up,\" with the printing of Martin Farquhar Tupper's poem \"Never Give Up!\"",
