Join us on April 11, 2026, at Harrington Parks and Recreation for the Sickle Cell Awareness 5K Walk & Run, a community-driven event dedicated to raising awareness, support, and funding for Sickle Cell research and advocacy. This event is deeply personal, as Sickle Cell Disease has directly affected my family—both my older sister and my nephew live with Sickle Cell—motivating my commitment to make a meaningful impact.
This family-friendly event welcomes walkers, runners, and supporters of all ages and fitness levels. In addition to the 5K Walk & Run, we will host an on-site Blood Drive, recognizing the critical role blood donations play in the treatment and survival of individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease. Participants and spectators will have the opportunity to give the gift of life by donating blood during the event.
We will also feature a “Be The Match” Bone Marrow Registry Campaign, offering attendees the chance to learn about bone marrow donation and potentially become a lifesaving match for someone in need.
All proceeds will support Sickle Cell research, education, and programs that improve the quality of life for individuals and families affected by this disease. Together, through awareness, action, and service, we can save lives and bring hope to our community.
Come walk, run, donate, and stand with us—because every step and every donation matters.
