SCDAA'S MISSION

SCDAA's mission is to promote finding a universal cure for sickle cell disease and to improve the quality of life for individuals and families where sickle cell disease related conditions exist.

As children from the sickle cell disease community make their journey into adolescence and on to adulthood, they learn to rely on hope for a cure, while support systems help them and their families cope with the medical and psychosocial impact of sickle cell disease.

For more than a quarter of a century, SCDAA has provided a large measure of that hope. Your charitable contributions and volunteer work will go a long way toward keeping that hope alive.

Volunteers

SCDAA, Miami-Dade County Chapter, Inc. depends to a large extent on volunteers, as the executive director, a part-time clerical person, and the board constitute our full complement of staff. Volunteerism may last from one hour to several years. Whether long-term, short-term, individuals or groups, SCDAA could not have accomplished its many challenges without committed, hardworking volunteers.
Put your unique skills to work for SCDAA. Your assistance to support our mission and to help improve the quality of life for sickle cell patients are welcomed.


Volunteering is...

  • Being a partner in the fight against sickle cell disease;
  • Learning more about sickle cell anemia and other variant hemoglobins;
  • Developing new skills and leadership abilities;
  • Serving your community and the needs of people with sickle cell conditions;
  • Meeting new friends;
  • Professional and personal growth;
  • The opportunity to make a difference in the life of someone affected with sickle cell disease.
