Covid-19 has financially impacted many families and decreased the ability of many families to purchase necessities such as food. Unfortunately, when a child with sickle cell disease experiences prolonged states of hunger, this creates a stressor on the body and as a result can predispose the child to having sickle cell pain crisis. Funds raised will be used to provide grocery vouchers/gift cards and/or bill assistance (rent/utilities) to sickle cell families with school aged children to help provide food and offset expenses that may be limited due to lack of/decreased employment caused by effects of the Covid-19 virus.
