Your Donation in ActionYour donation is greatly appreciated and helps Sickle Cell Foundation of Minnesota fulfill its mission through providing education, advocacy, community activities, events and other needed resources that help to improve the health and quality of life for individuals and communities impacted by Sickle Cell Disease. Since the start of the pandemic in early 2020, annually we have provided nearly 5x the dollars in time and monetary support to individuals and caregivers in the SCD community. Like so many small businesses and non-profits, this has dramatically increased our need to generate mission-fulfilling revenue in 2022 and beyond. *All donations are tax deductible to the extent of the laws in your state.
