How the Cure Sickle Cell Walk & Family Fun Day Drives Discoveries
“Philanthropic support enables CHOP physicians and scientists to reimagine a complex medical landscape as we work to treat and even cure blood disorders, including sickle cell disease. We will continue to investigate and innovate in this critical area of pediatric health on behalf of the many who depend on the advances we make. Your generosity drives our momentum and makes this work possible.”
