Stand for those who can’t. Take the pledge.
'Champions' represents all of us. You give a voice to our story, and a face to our plight. Championing our cause and bringing us relief.
Take the pledge. Every 3.5 minutes,
a baby is born with SCD.
Most of them won't make it to their fifth birthday, not because the disorder can't be managed but because help doesn't come. You can change that.
