Building bridges, breaking stigma

How old do you have to be to suffer a stroke? Of the 3500 babies born every year with sickle cell disease, 100 will suffer a stroke before their ninth birthday. Help us to help them access adequate care, and manage their condition.

Blood drop campaign

Did you know that during the Summer and Winter every year blood stocks drop?

We need more donors with the Ro subtype. Find out how you can help our campaign.
