Sickle Cell Awareness and Health Foundation

Sickle Cell Awareness and Health Foundation was founded in March 2018 as an awareness forum. The initiative stemmed from the experience of stigmatisation and poor public knowledge of sickle cell disorder in Nigeria. Over time, we evolved to provide services aimed at combating challenges relating to lack of access to healthcare, blood and its product. SCAHF was then incorporated in January 2020 in Nigeria as a non-profit organisation (CAC number:141658), providing services such as professional support for people living with sickle cell disease, improving access to health, blood, and blood products through blood drives and donor-to-patient linkage.
