Plan ahead
Know which month covers your condition and submit early. We start collecting stories roughly six weeks before a campaign goes live.
Awareness calendar
Twelve months, twelve conversations
Our campaign schedule follows the recognised national health awareness months, so our stories land while the wider conversation is already happening. The current month is highlighted.
Using the calendar
Three ways to work with a month
Amplify it
Share the month's stories with your school, club, or family. Awareness only counts once it leaves the page.
Suggest a change
If a condition matters to your community and we have missed it, tell us. The calendar is a starting point, not a fixed rule.
Check before you publish. Awareness months vary by country and are occasionally reassigned by the organizations that run them. Verify each month against a current source, and adjust the list in assets/js/main.js, before the campaign goes out.
See a month that belongs to you?
Tell us your story and we will place it in that month's campaign, with your name or without it, whichever you prefer.
