Living with sickle cell disease (SCD) means navigating relentless challenges—pain crises, infections, and societal stigma. The OOSCF Self-Care Awareness Program equips warriors and caregivers with the knowledge, tools, and community support to take control of their health, prevent complications, and reclaim their lives.

Transparency: 90% of donations directly fund resources, training, and outreach.

Where knowledge is power, and self-care is survival. Together, we’re rewriting the story of sickle cell—one empowered warrior at a time.

This Program Directly Advances SDG 1 (No Poverty), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities) and SDG 17 (Partnership For The Goals).
