SUMMARY:Cystinosis Awareness Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:This year marks the 9th Annual Cystinosis Awareness Day. \nInspired by the 57kb deletion in the CTNS gene\, the most common cause of nephropathic cystinosis\, the day has grown into a global moment of recognition\, awareness\, and action. \nThis year we focus on one question: What’s your 57?\nAnd here is a sample of ways you can take part: \n57 voices\nWhat’s your 57? The reason that keeps you going. The moment that shaped you. The “why” behind your connection to the cystinosis community. We’re inviting 57 people around the world to share theirs. Add your voice here. \nReflect\nJournal your journey. Write 57 words about your relationship with cystinosis\, or keep it simple and jot down how you are feeling today (share or keep it to yourself). \nGet creative\nTurn your “57” into a work of art; music\, drawing\, painting\, photography\, dance\, theater\, or crocheting\, writing etc. \nGive back\nAsk 57 friends and family members to donate to the CRN. \nExplain it\nCreate a short\, simplistic explanation of cystinosis to bring up in conversation. Or you could text\, email or call 5-7 people to talk about why awareness day is important to you. \nStay informed\nSpend 57 minutes reading the latest on cystinosis. Share one takeaway. \nActs of kindness\nComplete 5-7 small acts. Every action makes a difference! \nConnect\nLocated near Jacksonville\, Florida?
