To cure sickle cell disease

The Dutch Sickle Cell Foundation aims to relieve the pain of those who suffer from sickle cell disease.

By collecting funds to initiate and support innovative research, we hope to treat sickle cell disease more effectively in the future and to cure it in the near future, with as few adverse effects as possible.

Gajebi (5 years old) has sickle cell disease. She is a brave little girl but often sad that she has sickle cell disease.

“Every day, I am afraid that the terrible pains will come back.”
