The 2026 22q Faces of Sunshine Calendar – 20th Edition campaign is officially underway!
Grab Your Cameras and Submit Your Best Photos!
The International 22q11.2 Foundation’s 20th Annual Calendar Campaign has begun! Submit up to two high quality photos of your child or adult with the 22q11.2 deletion or duplication for a chance that he or she will be featured.
*Please note: high quality unedited photos work best.
Show your 22q pride all year long with the 2026 “Faces of 22q” wall calendar! Each month features inspiring photos of children and adults from our amazing 22q community, celebrating the strength, resilience, and beauty of every individual. We’ll make every effort to include each submitted photo in the calendar, depending on the number of entries and available space — so don’t wait to send yours in!
Perfect for the Holidays – This calendar also makes a thoughtful and meaningful holiday gift. Be sure to pre-order early to guarantee availability and delivery in time for the season. Let’s spread awareness and celebrate our community — one month at a time!
