Help 100 Sickle Cell Anaemia Children in Uganda

We are grateful to our supporter who joined hands to make a difference in these children's lives for the majority of the sufferers are young. 

As we look word hard to see these children and communities are helped,funds are needed to amplify our work. We don’t not have any funding yet for this project reson we come here appealing to generous person like you!

Currently, SCOEN through this project  champions the fight against sickle cell disease making sure that it is no longer a neglected condition.

FIGHTING STIGMA; under this initiative we move to communities and educate the people about sickle cell disease, its health effects , management and care. We go an extra mile and give medication handouts to people living with sickle cell . In schools and tertiary institutions we are establishing Sickle Cell Clubs as a means of fighting stigma and offer psycho-social support.

Our focus in the coming quarters:

1. PSYCHO-SOCIAL SUPPORT THROUGH COMMUNITY SICKLE CELL SUPPORT NETWORKS; following the sickle cell screening and testing, we shall cluster the affected families into focus groups with an aim of offering psychosocial support using our accredited team of Sickle Cell Counselors.
2. FAMILY ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT FOR POVERTY ALLEVIATION; Sickle Cell management and care has a big financial burden to the affected families. This burden is as a result of the frequent hospitalizations of the persons living with sickle cell, to the Care-takers /family members there is a loss of productive time due to work absenteeism which leads to loss of employment in most cases. Our economic empowerment program will enables us to promote poverty alleviation through agribusiness and art and crafts. This program is in its initial stages.

Your donations bringhope, love and bring smiles on the faces of sickle cell patients.

WE still appeal for your generous support towards this project

Thank You,

SCOEN Team
