Annual Sickle Cell Walk-A-Thon

Sickle Cell WalkThe Sickle Cell Disease Walk-A-Thon in Memphis originated in 2007. It has been developed to create a greater awareness in the Memphis community of Sickle Cell Disease and to raise money for patient care, social services, and research. All proceeds from the Walk-A-Thon will directly benefit people living with Sickle Cell. The ultimate goal is to improve the quality of life for individuals living with this debilitating disease.

All proceeds from the Walk-A-Thon will directly benefit individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease and the Education Programs for the Alpha Memphis Education Foundation. The latter works directly with the population most affected by this disease. We are grateful to all of our sponsors. See Photos
