THANK YOU for your overwhelming response at the Walk last year. We had over 800 people participate. We depend on your continued support of our efforts to help Stomp Out Sickle Cell. Although we've made many strides in treating sickle cell disease, it still affects the lives of tens of thousands of people everyday. Thank you for helping us raise awareness and educate the community about sickle cell disease and support those around us that are still coping with the condition.
We raised over $10,000 in 2011, and this year we want to do even more to support the activities of the Howard University Center for Sickle Cell Disease and Faces of Our Children, Inc. The monies raised are going directly to fund sickle cell research and to support screening in the community, educational activities in schools and community events, and toward the creation of educational brochures for the public.
This year our webpage is easier to navigate, and we are making significant improvements to our registration process for individuals and teams. We hope you will join us as the SOS Walk continues to grow and make an impact!
