We’re the largest 🌍 digital advocacy community organization for sickle cell! Sickle Cell 101 is dedicated to community-driven education, patient-reported research, and advocacy for sickle cell.
In honor of #WorldSickleCellDay, our ask is simple. A $5 donation!
Here’s why:
Not all information about sickle cell is created equally. We work diligently to ensure the content we provide is accurate, original, high quality, relevant, and easy to understand, so that all individuals impacted by sickle cell have access to important information about #sicklecell globally. We take what we do very seriously, never underestimating the power of information sharing and education.

Recent studies show that 30 to 50 percent of adults with sickle cell disease experience chronic medical trauma.
As part of our "Care and Treatment 101" series, we’re discussing how medical trauma (from painful procedures to being disbelieved) impacts our community and what we can do to manage it today. Let’s make education more approachable and support each other through the journey.
