Our Mission
Our mission is to empower and uplift youth with sickle cell disease by providing them with educational resources like tutoring and career development, meaningful support through advocacy, and finally giving them hope amongst their condition with meaningful gifts and community encouragement. We are dedicated to helping them envision a bright future beyond their diagnosis, breaking the stereotype that their illness defines their potential.

Meet the Founder
“Sickle cell has constantly affect my life especially my education ever since i was in kindergarten when my first crisis happened on my schools playground. One minute, I was playing with my newly found friends, the next i’m in excruciating pain. It was almost all a blur as I was being transported from hospital to hospital but the moment that really defined and helped me get through this awful experience was when all my classmates and nurses and doctors from St. Jude made cards for me
