Next Stop... Nigeria!

Update posted by Jenica Leah

The Sickle Cell Aid Foundation (SCAF) Nigeria has grown tremendously in its 5 years of existence, from an extra curricular club in the Nigerian Law School, to one of the most influential sickle cell NGO's in Nigeria.

My Friend Jen will be travelling to Nigeria to visit the Sickle Cell Aid Foundation, who's goal it is to "raise awareness about sickle cell disease and sickle cell trait", and also to "provide the most current and useful information available about sickle cell disease." Their motto is 'Hopeful Living' as they believe that with hope, sickle cell sufferers can live a normal life.

With your help, we hope to be able to assist them with achieving their goal and living up to their motto by donating 200 books to be distributed to the sickle cell community within Nigeria.
