We are thrilled to have had the incredible opportunity to participate in the impactful "Shine the Light Red" event held at the prestigious Red Cross Headquarters in Washington, D.C., on June 16th. This remarkable event, held in honor of World Sickle Cell Day, was a powerful platform that aimed to raise awareness and demonstrate unwavering support for individuals and families affected by sickle cell disease, a genetic blood disorder that disproportionately impacts the Black community.

During the event, the iconic Red Cross Headquarters served as a beacon of hope, radiating a vibrant red glow that symbolized our deep commitment to illuminating the challenges faced by those living with sickle cell disease. United with passionate sickle cell warriors, dedicated caregivers, and compassionate supporters, we embarked on a collective mission to make a lasting impact.
Central to our participation was the steadfast focus on raising awareness and fostering a greater understanding of sickle cell disease.

We seized this opportunity to share vital information about the condition, shedding light on its profound impact on individuals and families and emphasizing the urgent need for support and research. Moreover, we were privileged to extend an invitation to eligible individuals to donate blood, a lifeline for many sickle cell patients, as a powerful act of solidarity and essential support.

We invite you to join us in our unwavering commitment to creating a brighter future for those affected by sickle cell disease. Explore the crucial role that awareness and support play, and discover how you can make a profound and positive impact through donations, advocacy, and raising awareness in your community. Together, we can uplift the sickle cell community, ensuring access to quality care and transforming the lives of individuals and families living with sickle cell disease.

Keep an eye out for more updates and opportunities to get involved. Let us come together, shining a light of hope, compassion, and unwavering support for those affected by sickle cell disease.
