Can a calendar change people's lives?

Ever been frustrated by how psoriasis is perceived by the public, or not given adequate attention by government officials? Tired of psoriasis being a punchline, a scarlet letter, or swept under the rug? Our Psoriasis Calendar Campaign is designed to get the truth out about the seriousness of psoriasis, and about the wonderful people living lives of triumph despite this noncontagious but stigmatizing disease.

Our 2009 calendar profiles 15 psoriasis patients from 12 cities, shot by 10 professional photographers. The result is a human testament to living with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.

We distributed 11,000 copies of the calendar in 2009, including to every member of Congress and all the top media outlets nationwide. We'll distribute at least 15,000 copies of our 2010 Calendar, and we would love for you to be in it!

Click here or on the Submit Your Story button above to volunteer to be in our 2010 Calendar. We only have 12 spots available, but would love to hear from you. Maybe YOUR story will inspire a Congressman to increase psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis research funding.

Together, we'll turn a simple thing like a calendar into an inspirational, educational campaign for understanding.

Thank you for your support.
