This was a very productive year for Sick Cells, marked by steady progress and notable achievements showcased in this report, and we are confident that we will continue to show all of our stakeholders the importance of our work and be a part of the exciting transformation ahead for our sickle cell disease community.
This year has been special. Sick Cells has grown tremendously and our community is getting the spotlight it deserves. We’re grateful for our staff, volunteers, family and other rare disease advocates for their day-to-day support. Your time, generous donations and supportive messages do not ever go unnoticed.
In 2020, a fresh decade, we’ll continue to work to fulfill our mission to elevate the voices of those living with sickle cell. One important lesson we’ve learned throughout our Sick Cells journey: baby steps turn into miles.
After almost two years of working as a nonprofit, Sick Cells has grown legs and is ready to start running. We are incredibly grateful for all our volunteer staff and the achievements that we have accomplished to date. We look forward to the future for the SCD community and making this condition a household name.
