Sickle Cell Foundation Nigeria

Sickle Cell Foundation Nigeria A global nonprofit leader in the fight against sickle cell disorder (SCD), championing the prevention, care, cure, and control of SCD ❤️🌍

The formation of the Sickle Cell Foundation Nigeria was preceded by the formation of Sickle Cell Clubs around the country and of the Federation of Sickle Cell Clubs of Nigeria in 1991. The Sickle Cell Club is a non-governmental, non - profit making patient/parent support and advocacy organization that is basically unsuited to addressing some other important issues in sickle cell disorder (SCD) control, such as, research, capacity development, policy implementation, monitoring and evaluation in a sustained manner. In order to focus on these important issues, the Sickle Cell Foundation Nigeria was established in November 1994, as a non-governmental and non-profit making organisation dedicated to the proper care and control of sickle cell disorder in Nigeria.

Dear Partner,

We are deeply grateful for your support throughout 2025; It enabled us to reach millions of lives across Nigeria through care, advocacy, and life-saving interventions for persons living with sickle cell disorder.

Your commitment has not only strengthened our work in the present; it continues to fuel a bold vision for expanded, comprehensive, and dignified care in the years ahead.

Because of you, hope is sustained, access is widened, and lives are being changed—one intervention, one family, one community at a time.

As Helen Keller once said,
“Alone we can do so little; together, we can do so much.”
Together, we are not just doing the work.

Together, we are changing lives.
