Tars Syndrome Awareness Month
2025-04-01 - 2025-04-30
Tars Syndrome Awareness Month
TAR Syndrome Awareness Month is observed annually in April. It’s dedicated to raising awareness and support for individuals and families affected by Thrombocytopenia-Absent Radius (TAR) Syndrome.

What is TAR Syndrome?
TAR syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by:

Thrombocytopenia: Low blood platelet count, leading to easy bruising, frequent nosebleeds, and potential for serious bleeding complications.

Absent Radius: Missing radius bone in the forearms, resulting in limb abnormalities and challenges with arm movement.

Why Raise Awareness?

Rarity and Understanding: TAR syndrome is a rare condition, and many people, including healthcare professionals, are unfamiliar with it. Increased awareness helps with earlier diagnosis, better medical care, and improved support for those affected.

Research and Treatments: Raising awareness can encourage more research into the causes, treatments, and potential cures for TAR syndrome.
Support and Community: Awareness months help connect individuals and families affected by TAR syndrome, fostering a sense of community and providing resources and support networks.

Early Intervention: Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for managing TAR syndrome and improving outcomes. Awareness helps families and healthcare providers recognize the signs and symptoms, enabling timely treatment and support.

How to Participate:

Learn and Share: Educate yourself about TAR syndrome and share information with others.
Support Organizations: Support organizations like the TAR Syndrome Association that provide resources and advocate for research.

Connect with the Community: Engage with online communities and support groups to connect with other families and individuals affected by TAR syndrome.
Spread the Word: Use social media and other channels to raise awareness during TAR Syndrome Awareness Month.

By raising awareness, we can contribute to better understanding, support, and ultimately, improved quality of life for those living with TAR syndrome.

TAR SYNDROME AWARENESS MONTH
2025-04-01 - 2025-04-30
📅 April: National TAR Syndrome Awareness Month

This month, we recognize more than a diagnosis—we spotlight the realities of living at the intersection of race and disability. 💡
Founded in 2021 by @JylanRoss, the @tarsyndromeassociation launched this national awareness month to educate, support research, and uplift voices impacted by TAR Syndrome—a rare genetic condition causing low platelet counts and the absence of forearm bones (radius) in both arms.

✨ Why Jylan’s Work Matters
As a Black man living with TAR Syndrome, Jylan’s journey is both personal and purpose-driven. He’s faced the harsh realities of medical bias, lack of awareness, and racial disparities in care—and now he’s turning that lived experience into action. By educating, raising funds, and uplifting others by navigating disability and identity, he’s proving that awareness is the first step toward real change. 🛑

📊 Did You Know?
🔹 TAR Syndrome affects fewer than 1 in 100,000 people.
🔹 Awareness is still extremely limited, especially in Black communities.
🔹 Black individuals with rare conditions often face delayed diagnoses, limited access to care, and double discrimination: systemic racism and medical bias.
🔹 Disability stigma in the Black community adds another barrier, making it harder to speak up, seek help, or be seen.

🧠 When stigma meets silence, it hurts.
Too often, disabilities are hidden, misunderstood, or dismissed. In Black communities, where strength and perseverance are often celebrated, acknowledging disability can feel isolating. But true strength is also found in visibility, vulnerability, and advocacy.

💡 That’s why @jylanross ’s work with the @TARSyndromeAssociation is so powerful—it challenges stigma while building a community. Through awareness, education, and compassion, we can create change that’s both inclusive and impactful.

World Autism Awareness Day
2025-04-02
🌍 April – Autism Awareness Month
📅 April 2 – World Autism Awareness Day
2025 Theme: “Color the Spectrum” — Highlighting inclusion, acceptance & the celebration of neurodiversity.
Every April, the world recognizes Autism Awareness Month, beginning with World Autism Awareness Day on April 2, as declared by the United Nations. It’s a moment to not only raise awareness but also push for equity, inclusion, and the celebration of every mind—especially within Black communities, where unique challenges persist.
🧠 Why It Matters in the Black Community
Black children are still disproportionately misdiagnosed, diagnosed late, or underdiagnosed, with boys most affected. Cultural stigma, reduced access to resources, and racial bias in health and education systems create gaps that delay or deny support.
📊 Did You Know?

Black children with autism are diagnosed on average 3 years later than white children (CDC).

Many Black families face limited access to services, especially in underserved areas.

Black autistic individuals are vastly underrepresented in the autism conversation and research.

♾️ Linking Autism Advocacy to the SDGs
The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a universal call to action—and autism inclusion intersects deeply with several of these goals:
✅ SDG 3: Good Health & Well-Being – Advocates for accessible and equitable autism healthcare, mental health services, and early diagnosis.
✅ SDG 4: Quality Education – Calls for inclusive education models that support neurodivergent learners in both mainstream and alternative settings.
✅ SDG 8: Decent Work & Economic Growth – Supports employment opportunities, workplace accommodations, and entrepreneurship for autistic individuals.
✅ SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities – Focuses on systemic change to eliminate social, racial, and ability-based discrimination.
Together, these goals aim to build an inclusive world where everyone has an equitable opportunity to thrive—regardless of neurological difference.

💡 This April, Let’s Take Action

World Health Day
2025-04-07
World Health Day
📅 April 7: World Health Day 🌍❤️‍🩹🩺 2025 Global Theme: “My Health, My Right”
Health is a fundamental human right—not a privilege. Yet for many across the global Black community, that right is still out of reach.
📊 Did You Know?🔹 Black individuals often face higher rates of chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and maternal mortality—especially Black women and mothers.🔹 Studies show that Black patients are less likely to receive adequate pain management or timely diagnoses.🔹 A lack of diverse clinical research leads to misdiagnosis, mistreatment, or under-treatment—especially in children and racialized communities.🔹 Black boys, for example, are disproportionately diagnosed with behavioral disorders or overmedicated instead of properly supported.
🧬 Many of these disparities stem from historic neglect, systemic racism, and the lack of culturally competent care—not from biology alone. Genetics matter, but so do justice and access.
👩🏾‍⚕️ It’s time to shift from awareness to ACTION. This #WorldHealthDay, we spotlight Black-led health nonprofits driving change in their communities—bridging the gap, saving lives, and reclaiming the right to wellness. 💪🏿✨

Mental Health Awareness Month
2025-05-01 - 2025-05-31
Mental Health Awareness Month
Mental Health Awareness Month began in the United States in 1949 and was started by the Mental Health America (MHA) organization (then known as the National Association for Mental Health). Each year in mid-March Mental Health America releases a toolkit of materials to guide preparation for outreach activities during Mental Health Awareness Month. During the month of May, MHA, its affiliates, and other organizations interested in mental health conduct a number of activities which are based on a different theme each year.
The purpose of Mental Health Awareness Month is to raise awareness and educate the public about: mental illnesses, such as the 18.1% of Americans who suffer from depression, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder; the realities of living with these conditions; and strategies for attaining mental health and wellness. It also aims to draw attention to suicide, which can be precipitated by some mental illnesses. Additionally, Mental Health Awareness Month strives to reduce the stigma (negative attitudes and misconceptions) that surrounds mental illnesses. The month came about by presidential proclamation.
🧒🏾👧🏽 Mental health isn’t just for adults—it starts early. That’s why this month, we’re spotlighting the importance of nurturing the emotional well-being of Black children and youth.
🌱 Origin & Purpose:
Mental Health Awareness Month began in the U.S. in 1949 to raise awareness about mental illness and promote mental wellness. In Canada, May 7 marks National Child & Youth Mental Health Day—initiated by the Institute of Families to emphasize connection, empathy, and early support for youth struggling with mental health.
📊 Did You Know?
🔹 1 in 5 children will experience a mental health challenge before age 19.
🔹 Black youth are less likely to receive adequate mental health support due to stigma, systemic bias, and lack of access.
🔹 Early mental health support can lead to better lifelong outcomes: improved academic performance, stronger relationships, and reduced risk of chronic illness.
🔹 Youth who feel heard, supported, and seen are more resilient and confident as they grow.
🖤 In Black communities, stigma around mental health still creates silence—and silence can be harmful. But healing starts with acknowledgment, cultural safety, and access to care.
💬 Our children deserve more than survival—they deserve to thrive. Mental health is not a luxury, it’s a foundation.
👥 Let’s support Black-led nonprofits working to empower, heal, and advocate for youth mental wellness.

World Hunger Day
2025-05-28
World Hunger Day

This World Hunger Day we are highlighting the critical importance of access to education, healthcare and technology in ending hunger.
Hunger is not just about food. Hunger and poverty are inextricably linked to a nexus of issues including: the rights of women and girls, income opportunities, health, education, social justice, the environment and climate change.
The end of hunger and poverty is possible when people have the necessary tools and resources and when solutions are community-led — by and for the people living in conditions of chronic hunger. When children receive education and women have access to healthcare and technology, they have the ability to build a better future for themselves and their communities. We believe that bridging the gaps in access to these essential resources is a sustainable and critical step towards ending hunger and poverty.

International Day of the African Child
2025-06-16
International Day of the African Child

The Day of the African Child has been celebrated on June 16 every year since 1991, when it was first initiated by the OAU Organisation of African Unity. It honors those who participated in the Soweto Uprising in 1976 on that day. It also raises awareness of the continuing need for improvement of the education provided to African children.
In Soweto, South Africa, on June 16, 1976, about ten thousand black school children marched in a column more than half a mile long, protesting the poor quality of their education and demanding their right to be taught in their own language. Hundreds of young students were shot, the most famous of which being Hector Pieterson. More than a hundred people were killed in the protests of the following two weeks, and more than a thousand were injured.
On June 16 every year, governments, NGOs, international organizations and other stakeholders gather to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the full realization of the rights of children in Africa. For 2014, the theme chosen returns to the roots of the movement: A child-friendly, quality, free, and compulsory education for all children in Africa

Juneteenth African American Emancipation Day
2025-06-19
Juneteenth African American Emancipation Day

📅 June 19: Juneteenth – Freedom Day 🖤❤️💚
A day of remembrance. A day of celebration. A day of truth.
🎯 Origin & Purpose
Juneteenth (a blend of “June” and “nineteenth”) marks the day in 1865 when Union General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas and announced the end of slavery—over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
This bittersweet moment ended 246 years of legal enslavement, but also exposed the harsh reality of delayed freedom and broken promises for Black Americans.
📜 Official Recognition:
In 2021, Juneteenth became a federal holiday in the United States, an overdue acknowledgment of a pivotal moment in American history.
📊 Did You Know?
🔹 Juneteenth has its own flag, symbolizing freedom, hope, and a new beginning for Black Americans.
🔹 The tradition of BBQs, reunions, and gatherings on Juneteenth began as a way to reconnect families separated during slavery.
🔹 Many countries in the Pan-African diaspora now observe Juneteenth in solidarity.
🔹 For Black communities, Juneteenth is a time to celebrate resilience and reflect on ongoing struggles for justice.
🖤 Why It Matters Today
Juneteenth is not just history—it’s a mirror. It calls us to examine how far we’ve come and how far we still have to go. From systemic racism to generational trauma, the legacy of enslavement continues to impact Black communities globally.
💡 Take action:
This Juneteenth, don’t just post—learn, reflect, and amplify. Support Black-led nonprofits. Discover untold stories. Invest in freedom—because equity is still unfinished business.

National Indigenous Peoples Day - Canada
2025-06-21
National Indigenous Peoples Day

National Indigenous People's Day
2025-06-21
National Indigenous People’s Day
National Aboriginal Day, now National Indigenous Peoples Day, was announced in 1996 by then Governor General of Canada, Roméo LeBlanc, through the Proclamation Declaring June 21 of Each Year as National Aboriginal Day.
On June 21st, we pay special attention to National Indigenous People’s Day, a day for all Canadians to honour and celebrate the legacy, diverse cultures and exceptional contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples.
About National Indigenous Peoples Day
For generations, many Indigenous groups and communities have celebrated their culture and heritage on June 21 or around that time of year because of the significance of the summer solstice as the longest day of the year.
National Aboriginal Day, now National Indigenous Peoples Day, was announced in 1996 by then Governor General of Canada, Roméo LeBlanc, through the Proclamation Declaring June 21 of Each Year as National Aboriginal Day. This was the result of consultations and statements of support for such a day made by various Indigenous groups:

in 1982, the National Indian Brotherhood, now the Assembly of First Nations, called for the creation of National Aboriginal Solidarity Day
in 1995, the Sacred Assembly, a national conference of Indigenous and non-Indigenous people chaired by Elijah Harper, called for a national holiday to celebrate the contributions of Indigenous Peoples
also in 1995, the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples recommended the designation of a National First Peoples Day

On June 21, 2017, the Prime Minister issued a statement announcing the intention to rename this day National Indigenous Peoples Day.
National Indigenous Peoples Day is part of the Celebrate Canada program, which also includes Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day on June 24, Canadian Multiculturalism Day on June 27 and Canada Day on July 1.
The Government of Canada provides funding opportunities for community celebratory events, as well as for commemorations on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Madagascar Independence Day
2025-06-26
Madagascar Independence Day

Madagascar celebrates its Independence Day every 26 June. This is the date in 1960 when the complete independence of Madagascar from France was achieved and recognized.
The Ancient and Medieval history of Madagascar includes settlement by black Africans, Arab traders, and Austronesians from the Southeast Asian region of Borneo. But its modern history begins with its discovery by Portuguese explorers in 1500.
It was the French, however, and not the Portuguese who colonised Madagascar, although there was some early British influence on nearby small islands. The French influence began in the 1600’s and 1700’s, but it was only in 1895 that France conquered much of the island and the following year that they officially annexed Madagascar.
A major revolt broke out against French rule in 1897, but failed. Then an even bigger revolt broke out in 1947, but also ultimately failed. But finally, Madagascar was granted partial self-rule in 1958 and total self-rule in 1960, after their push for independence simply would not be dismissed.

Black Maternal Mental Health Week
2025-07-19 - 2025-07-25
Black Maternal Mental Health Week
It’s more than awareness: it’s healing, justice, and change. Black women are 3-4x more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes. Their mental health deserves to be seen and supported.
Black Maternal Mental Health Week is observed annually from July 19th to 25th. This week aims to raise awareness about the unique mental health challenges faced by Black mothers during pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. It’s a time to highlight the disparities in access to care and advocate for increased support and resources for this vulnerable population.
We need to listen, care, and show up every day.
✨ Postpartum doulas + Easy Access Clinic™️ = real support
To every Black mama:
You matter. Your mind matters. You are not alone. 🖤

National Minority Donor Awareness Day - organ donor
2025-08-01
National Minority Donor Awareness Day
(organ donor)

HISTORY OF NATIONAL MINORITY DONOR AWARENESS DAY
National Minority Donor Awareness Day is part of National Minority Donor Awareness Week. Both events were started as a way to increase organ donation among minority communities. National Minority Donor Awareness Week is observed in the first week of August each year to honor the contribution of multicultural donors and their families, while also highlighting the urgent need from minority communities to register themselves as organ, eye, and tissue donors. Although it is not uncommon for a candidate to match a donor from another racial or ethnic group, transplant success rates increase exponentially when organs are matched between members of the same ethnic background. This means that a dearth of organs donated by certain communities may lead to longer waiting periods for transplantation.
Within the African-American, Asian, Hispanic, Native American, and Pacific Islander-American communities, experts have voiced concerns about the serious shortage of transplants. Minorities make up 57% of those on the organ waiting list and only 30% of the donor population. Minority patients are often at an increased need for transplants affecting the heart, kidney, pancreas, and liver due to unavoidable or chronic conditions. Healthcare facilities take into consideration several factors when matching donors to recipients but blood type is the most critical component. Since ethnic groups tend to have similar blood types, success rates increase when recipients are paired within the same ethnic or racial group. While one doesn’t have to depend only on donors of the same race for a successful transplant, a similar ethnic or racial background makes the process smoother and more likely to be a success.
Yet another focus of the day includes acknowledging minorities who have donated. Along with educating people about the need to donate organs, the day also encourages them to register themselves as donors. National Minority Donor Awareness Day also tries to inculcate good health habits in people so that there may be a decreased need for an organ transplant.

Black Business Month
2025-08-01 - 2025-08-31
Black Business Month
HISTORY OF BLACK BUSINESS MONTH
The history of Black Business Month can be traced back to the year 2004, when engineering entrepreneur Frederick E. Jordan partnered with the president and executive editor of the scholarly publishing company eAccess Corp,’ John William Templeton, to start this annual event. The intention of the pair was to “drive the policy agenda affecting the 2.6 million African-American businesses,” in order to highlight and empower Black business owners all over, especially given the unique challenges faced by minority business owners. This stemmed from Jordan’s own personal experience of the struggle to gain financial backing and funding when he began his own firm in San Francisco in 1969.

Black Business Month is celebrated in August — it’s a time to acknowledge and appreciate black-owned businesses across the nation and all that they represent in the country’s continual striving for diversity and equality.
When we celebrate the contribution of black business owners and entrepreneurs, it pays homage to them and their legacies, especially since celebrating this month recognizes the importance of black-owned businesses when it comes to contributing to the nation’s economy as well. Approximately 10% of all American businesses are black-owned, and if we look at what statistics say about minority-owned businesses, about 30% of these would belong to black business owners. The primary sectors in which black-owned businesses operate include health care, social work, repair and maintenance, beauty salons, restaurants, and more. Although, the types of innovative business is quickly changing.

Emancipation Day - Canada
2025-08-01
Emancipation Day – Canada

Emancipation Day in Canada in 2024

Ontario has been the only province to have marked Emancipation Day, but now it is officially a federal day in Canada, after members of parliament in the House of Commons voted unanimously in March 2021 to designate it nationwide for August 1st — denoting the day in 1834 that the Act came into effect. They cast 335 votes in favour and no abstentions or nay votes.

History of Emancipation Day
The British like other colonial powers had allowed the widespread practice of slavery to take place during the time of expansion to the new world. In 1772, the ruling in the case of Somerset v Stewart determined that slavery was unsupported by the common law in England and Wales. While the ruling was not clear on the situation in other parts of the Empire, this case was seen as a key turning point in the change towards emancipation.
Slavery was finally abolished throughout the British Empire by the Slavery Abolition Act 1833, which came into effect on August 1st 1834. The territories controlled at that time by the East India Company, Ceylon (modern-day Sri Lanka) and St. Helen’s were excluded. Slavery was not abolished in these regions until 1843.

When is Emancipation Day?
This holiday marks the end of slavery in the British Empire.
It is a public holiday in several Caribbean countries and although the holiday commemorates events that took place on August 1st 1834, it may be celebrated on different days in these countries.
On this page, we show a list of countries who observe the British Empire version of Emancipation. We also have separate Emancipation Day pages for Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago.
For a wider view of Emancipation Day holidays, our Day by Day Guide to Emancipation shows the dates for all versions.

The territories controlled at that time by the East India Company, Ceylon (modern-day Sri Lanka) and St. Helen’s were excluded. Slavery was not abolished in these regions until 1843.
While Emancipation Day was officially declared on August 1st 1834, it took nearly five more years for people in the Caribbean to be really free. Slaves that were newly freed after emancipation were forced into apprenticeships, where they had to continue to work uncompensated for their former slavers. Some accounts state that they were given a small stipend but still went through similar slavery working conditions.
It was in 1838 that apprenticeship ended, that is, four years after emancipation. And this was thanks to petitions by the Anti-Slavery Society, leading to Parliament voting for full emancipation to begin from August 1, 1838. In some places such as Antigua and Bermuda, the colonial governments abolished apprenticeship and fully emancipated the enslaved in 1834.
There were some groups of people already living in freedom before Emancipation. Most of them were former soldiers. The Merikins were one of them. They were ex-slaves of the American south who were part of the British army in 1812. For helping fight against the former colonies, they were rewarded with their freedom and land in the Princes Town and Moruga area on Trinidad. Africa-born soldiers who also served in the West India Regiment also had their freedom and land as rewards.
There were also the Mandingo people who also owned their own land and crops and bought the freedom of their fellow Mandingo people with the money they had.

Did you know?
The first country in the world to observe a public holiday for Emancipation Day was Trinidad and Tobago, when Emancipation Day replaced Discovery Day in 1985.
Related Holidays
Emancipation Day is a public holiday in Tonga. It is celebrated on or around June 4th to mark the abolition of the serf system in Tonga by King George Tupuo on June 4th 1863.
In the United States of America, Emancipation Day is a state holiday in Washington DC and is celebrated on the weekday closest to April 16th. As it can fall close to the annual tax return date, Emancipation Day can often lead to a delay in the date that Americans need to file their tax returns.

International Youth Day
2025-08-12
International Youth Day
International Youth Day is to amplify the message that action is needed across all generations to achieve the SDGs and leave no one behind. International Youth Day will also raise awareness on certain barriers to intergenerational solidarity, notably ageism, which impacts young and old persons, while having detrimental effects on society as a whole.
We must collaborate to foster successful and equitable intergenerational relations and partnerships to ensure “no one is left behind.” While intergenerational solidarity and concern for future generations is being called for in tackling global issues – with the UN Secretary-General recently putting forward new recommendations on renewed intergenerational solidarity, including in Our Common Agenda – many challenges remain.
International Youth Day is celebrated every year on August 12, and this year, it falls on a Monday. The theme for this year is “From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development.”

Republic of the Congo National Day
2025-08-15
Republic of the Congo National Day

National Day is a public holiday observed in the Republic of Congo on 15 August. This is the day in 1960 when Congo gained its independence from the French and is, therefore, also called Independence Day.
Contact between what is now Congo and the West began when Portuguese explorers arrived in the late 1400s, but active colonisation was begun by France in the late 1800s. By 1880, France had declared a protectorate over the region, and in 1892, Congo became an official French overseas territory. In 1910, French Congo was joined to French Equatorial Africa.
While much of France was occupied by the Germans in World War II, Brazzaville in Congo remained a stronghold of the Free French. In the midst of the war, in 1944, it was granted a degree of autonomy by the Free French government.
In 1958, Congo became a separate country that was only loosely under French control. Finally, the demands for full autonomy were granted to Republic of Congo in 1960.

Marcus Garvey Day
2025-08-17
Marcus Garvey Day

Why is Marcus Garvey celebrated?

Garvey was known as the founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA). Formed in Jamaica in July 1914, the UNIA aimed to achieve Black nationalism through the celebration of African history and culture.

What day is Marcus Garvey Day?

Marcus Garvey Day, celebrated on August 17th, honors the legacy of Marcus Garvey, a Jamaican political leader, publisher, journalist, and orator who advocated for the empowerment and rights of people of African descent. His work emphasized racial pride, self-reliance, and economic empowerment.

oday we are honoring Marcus Garvey Day, a day dedicated to celebrating the life and legacy of Jamaican-born visionary leader, Marcus Garvey, who tirelessly championed the rights and empowerment of people of African descent.
Marcus Garvey was a true pioneer and continues to inspire us with his unyielding passion for justice, cultural pride, and self-determination. His significant contributions to society are vast and wide-reaching.
Key aspects of Marcus Garvey’s legacy include:

Visionary Leadership: Garvey founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) and the African Communities League, advocating for economic empowerment, self-reliance, and unity amongst people of African descent globally.
Pan-Africanism: He was a stalwart advocate for Pan-Africanism, promoting solidarity amongst people of African descent, regardless of their geographical location. His unshakeable belief in the greatness of Africa and its diaspora spearheaded a global social change movement.
Cultural Pride: Garvey fervently encouraged African Americans and those of African heritage to celebrate their cultural heritage, shun self-doubt, and take pride in their societal contributions.

As we observe Marcus Garvey Day, let’s unite as a team to honor his extraordinary life and legacy. This celebration not only recognizes Garvey’s achievements but also embodies broader themes of empowerment, equality, and cultural pride.
