Join the fight against sickle cell disease

Did you know that sickle cell disease affects one in every 1,000 babies born in the United States?  More babies are diagnosed with sickle cell disease each year than with cystic fibrosis or spina bifida and the disease affects people of all races and creeds.

 

The Ohio Sickle Cell and Health Association provides vital services to affected individuals and their families - and we need your support.
