The Sickle Cell Helping Hand Foundation is once again making a meaningful impact in the fight against sickle cell disease as it prepares for its two-day programme slated for August 28–29, 2025. With a strong focus on community health, education, and direct support to patients, the Foundation is strengthening its commitment to awareness creation, early detection, and care for individuals affected by sickle cell disease.

Central to the initiative is the health talk and education session on sickle cell disease, which will provide valuable knowledge on prevention, management, and coping strategies for patients and their families. By equipping participants with accurate information, the Foundation seeks to dispel myths surrounding the condition while promoting healthier lifestyles and encouraging routine check-ups for early intervention.
Another key highlight of the programme is the health screenings and counselling sessions, which will give community members access to general medical check-ups and malaria testing. These services not only provide immediate healthcare benefits but also help participants better understand their health status and the importance of regular medical care.

Counselling will further support families by addressing the emotional and psychological impact of living with or caring for someone with sickle cell disease.
The Foundation’s work extends beyond just outreach and screening. Through its Teen’s Educational Health Talk Tour at Bolgatanga Regional Hospital, the organisation continues to engage young people in meaningful conversations about health, wellness, and the realities of sickle cell disease. This tour empowers teenagers with knowledge, encouraging them to make informed health choices while serving as ambassadors of awareness in their communities.

As part of its commitment to practical support, the Foundation will also lead a donation exercise at the Bolgatanga Regional Hospital’s Sickle Cell Unit. This gesture is designed to ease the burdens faced by patients and caregivers, while also reminding the sickle cell community that they are not alone. The donation will be accompanied by words of encouragement, solidarity, and interaction with patients to uplift their spirits and inspire hope.

The programme is also expected to emphasize the importance of blood donation in the treatment of sickle cell disease. Blood transfusions remain a critical aspect of care for many patients, and the Foundation continues to advocate for regular voluntary blood donation as a lifesaving act of kindness.
Through these initiatives, The Sickle Cell Helping Hand Foundation is not only offering medical and material support but also spreading hope, compassion, and education. Its consistent efforts reflect a deep commitment to ensuring that individuals living with sickle cell disease receive the care, attention, and encouragement they deserve.

We are calling on everyone to support our course by donating to our organisation through momo number 0552723595.
