2024 Sickle Cell Walk for Awareness & Community Marketplace

The Sickle Cell Anemia Foundation of Oregon will host the 12th annual "Walk A Mile For Sickle Cell", a run, bike and walk-a-thon on September 14th during National Sickle Cell Awareness Month. Registration begins at 9am with warmup exercises at 9:30 am led by Georgann Georgann Pierce of The Soulful Strutters. The walk will begin a little after 10 am.

This is our largest fundraiser of the year and we need your help in raising money to support Oregon families impacted by Sickle Cell and to bring much needed awareness about SIckle Cell. We will also feature a Community Marketplace with local artists and vendors with unique offerings and incredible art.

Join us and "Walk A Mile For Sickle Cell". Can't make it to the walk in-person, that is okay, donations are being accepted, any amount is appreciated and we are also accepting sponsors at each sponsorship level.

Table Registration: Are you a local artist or a community nonprofit and would like to have a table at the community marketplace? Submit our online interest form and someone from our team will respond to you.

Sickle Cell Warrior Recognition: At the start of the walk, we are honoring Sickle Cell Warriors and paying tribute to those who have passed on. If you have someone you would like to see honored, submit our online SC Warrior recognition form today. Whether they are a patient, caregiver, medical professional or advocate, we want to recognize them.
