Global Day Calendar

Each year on June 21, the International Alliance of ALS/MND Associations recognizes Global Day – a day to raise awareness of ALS/MND, a disease that affects people in every country around the world. ALS/MND does not discriminate by race, ethnicity, income, or geography. For every person diagnosed, the impact is deeply felt by families, friends, and entire communities.

On Global Day, the ALS/MND community comes together through awareness activities that symbolize hope for a future with better treatments, a cure, and ultimately, an end to ALS/MND. Alliance members around the world use the hashtag #ALSMNDWithoutBorders to share their stories and show their support.​

ALS/MND Calendar Contest

This year, we’re celebrating Global Day through creativity with the launch of our first ALS/MND Calendar. Alliance member associations were invited to submit original artwork and photographs that reflect our shared commitment to ending ALS/MND. These images will be featured in our 2026 wall, desk, and agenda calendars — and now we need your help to choose them!

Vote for Your Favourite Images!

Help us choose the final images for the 2026 ALS/MND calendar! You can vote for up to five of your favourite submissions below. Click any image to enlarge it, and press the Esc key to return to the gallery.

Everyone is welcome to participate! Voting is open until June 17. The winning images will be announced on Global Day on June 21.
