Events at the Tip of your Fingers
We provide two Google Calendars on our website: a community events calendar and an awareness days calendar. These calendars can be added to your PC/Mac or smartphone for easy access to all the important dates in our global rare and associated communities. Follow these simple instructions to add the calendars to your device and stay up-to-date on all the events and awareness days.
Depending on the method you choose or the device you’re using, you may need the iCal address or the public URL. Contact us for the iCal address if you need it. You should be able to find the public URL by clicking the calendar on either the Events or Awareness pages.
