Story

Hello!

The Kamau Therapeutics team is running the 5k as part of the San Francisco Marathon races to raise money for Kincaid's Kindred Spirits, a non-profit organization created for the purpose of bringing community awareness to the plight of adults who are afflicted with Sickle Cell Anemia and Sickle Cell Trait.

Money raised will go to help fund programs such as community outreach, monthly support group meetings, referral and information tables at public forums and health fairs, and other activities that support those living with sickle cell disease.

Please support our efforts by making a secure online donation and by posting a message of support.

Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to my charity of choice. Thanks so much for your support!

About Sickle Cell Disease:

Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a common genetic condition affecting over 500,000 people worldwide every year. In the U.S., more than 100,000 individuals have SCD, and around 20% of them have a severe form of the disease. SCD occurs when a gene called HBB undergoes a specific change, which changes one substance in its genetic code to another. This genetic alteration leads to the creation of a variant known as HbS. The irregular shape of red blood cells resulting from this mutation causes serious health issues, including anemia, blockages in blood flow, severe pain, an increased risk of stroke, damage to multiple organs, and ultimately a shorter lifespan, representing a significant medical need.
