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!
