Benefits Sickle Cell Disease Association of America

Casual/workout attire

Register today for the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America, Inc. (SCDAA) for our 5th Annual Walk With the Stars & Move-a-thon on August 18, 2018 at the scenic Canton Waterfront Park, in Baltimore, MD. This year, we have added a new theme by incorporating different types of movement because “we’re on the move for sickle cell!” You, your friends, and family members can participate in this wonderful event not only by walking and running, but also with jump roping, hula hooping, and Zumba, just to name a few. We look forward to all the fun and new ways individuals can support this event by “moving” to fight sickle cell disease (SCD).

Walk With The Stars & Move-a-thon is SCDAA’s largest event dedicated to finding better treatments and a cure for sickle cell disease, and to preventing the complications of this disorder through awareness, advocacy and research. This event is also the only 5K benefiting sickle cell disease on a national level, creating more opportunities of impact for our 41 chapters across the United States.

To date, we have raised over $540,000 for better treatments and improvements in the quality of health for individuals, families and communities affected by sickle cell disease. Last year we raised over $140,000! This year, with your help, we’re taking SCD and SCT awareness to the next level with a goal of $300,000!

United with every walker, runner, and shaker and mover, together we can raise the necessary funds which will get us that much closer to finding a cure!
