A global online forum for families, healthcare professionals and the world community to access and provide education and information about sickle cell disease.
It's #WorldSickleCellDay, our day to celebrate, show our scars and educate others on the importance of #sicklecell awareness & research.
Tell your stories, sport your gear, participate in events and have fun, we deserve it. Stay tuned for WSCD related posts all day long.
Tuesday June 19 is World Sickle Cell Awareness Day! We will be asking sickle cell Education Questions during the day starting at 8am. The person who answers the most questions correctly will win two tickets to Schlitterbahn! We will also be giving away a Walmart gift card!
Today we hosted our first (of many) annual Walk4SCD events. Despite the rain, nearly 60 people showed up to support the sickle cell community. Special thanks to our event sponsors @northmemorial , @mnhealth and the 12 incredible fundraising teams that helped raise nearly $10,000!
In just a few hours. One of the Sickle Cell Foundation's favorite stand-up comedians, television host, actor, radio personality and humanitarian will serve as our celebrity host. We are ready for another joyful cell-ebration @RickeySmiley!
