Our events and conferences bring together patients, families, advocates, healthcare professionals, and community partners to share knowledge, raise awareness, and strengthen support for those impacted by Sickle Cell Disease. From educational forums to community gatherings, these opportunities foster connection, learning, and meaningful dialogue. |

Strength, community, and lifesaving impact come together in this upcoming blood drive at Langston University–OKC. As the image powerfully reminds us, our blood saves lives—and for individuals living with sickle cell disease, regular blood donations are not just helpful, they are essential. On Tuesday, February 3, students, faculty, and the surrounding Oklahoma City community are invited to roll up their sleeves and make a real difference. Hosted in Classroom #102, this blood drive is an opportunity to turn compassion into action, support the American Red Cross, and help ensure that patients who rely on frequent transfusions have access to the lifesaving blood they need.
