Printathon 2026 | Sponsorship Campaign

Our Printathon goes live at 7pm Thursday 23 April 2026 and concludes at 11:59pm Thursday 23 July 2026.

Celebrate T21 operates as a social enterprise, meaning our projects are funded through sponsorship and community contribution. The majority of funds raised are reinvested directly into the creation of our books, educational resources, and gift packs, allowing us to continue supporting families and communities across Australia.

Each book participant has their own personal sponsorship page, where family, friends and supporters can contribute towards the production of our upcoming 2027 book and associated gift packs.

You are sponsoring: Lara Macchiacerni Granetto

To date, Celebrate T21 has proudly distributed over 8,500 books both nationally and internationally, along with more than $500,000 in gift packs to families receiving a pre or post-natal diagnosis of Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome). These packs are designed to ensure that every family is met with celebration, connection and support from the very beginning.

Our books are also shared with:

• Families across Australia
• Medical professionals including GPs and paediatric teams
• Educators and community organisations
• Partner organisations including Down Syndrome Australia and other support networks

How your sponsorship makes an impact

Your support contributes directly to:

• The production of our 2027 Celebrate T21 book
• The creation and distribution of gift packs for new and expecting families
• Ongoing advocacy and education within schools, medical settings and the broader community

This initiative is made possible through sponsorship, and in return, participants receive a meaningful and lasting outcome through their involvement in the project.
