Raise money for Sickle Cell Awareness Group of Ontario

The Sickle Cell Awareness Group of Ontario is the leading provincial charitable patient organization providing evidence-based support to families with children, adolescents, and adults with sickle cell disease across the four regions of the province. It supports clinical research and engages in psycho-social research, health promotion, patient and care provider education, community awareness, and the development of best practices guidelines.

Sickle cell disease is a serious, lifelong genetic blood disorder that affects red blood cells, causing severe pain episodes, complications, and ongoing health challenges. It disproportionately impacts individuals of African, Caribbean, Middle Eastern, South Asian, and Mediterranean descent—communities that have historically faced barriers in accessing equitable and culturally responsive healthcare. 

OUR VISION: Optimize the lives of individuals and families living with sickle cell disease and ensure equal access to comprehensive care across the province.

OUR MISSION: Reduce new sickle cell births and improve the quality of life for those affected.

Every step in the Toronto Waterfront Marathon 🏃‍♂️ SUPPORTS PEOPLE LIVING WITH SICKLE CELL DISEASE ❤️

Your donation to the Sickle Cell Awareness Group of Ontario provides essential support: assistance for families and individuals, including financial assistance, access to care 🏥, education 📚, and community programs that make a real difference every day.

Funds raised also drive awareness and support progress toward better treatments.
