Today, we join hands with communities worldwide to celebrate World Sickle Cell Day 2024. This significant day raises awareness about Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and highlights the ongoing efforts to combat this inherited blood disorder.
At the Sickle Cell Association of The Gambia, we are committed to making a difference in the lives of those affected by SCD. This year, our focus is on enhancing early diagnosis and improving access to care. Thanks to the generous donation of HemotypeSC Sickle Cell test kits from ECOMED Scientific Limited, we are screening adolescents and youths across The Gambia. Early detection is crucial in managing SCD effectively and reducing its incidence.
Join us in our mission to spread awareness, provide support, and advocate for better healthcare for all SCD patients. Together, we can make a significant impact and bring hope to countless families.
