🎉 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! 🎉

A NEW PARTNERSHIP. A NEW PATH TO ACCESS. A BIGGER IMPACT. 💙❤️

The Armstead-Barnhill Foundation for Sickle Cell Anemia is proud and excited to announce our partnership with Pfizer to launch a Transportation Initiative for Sickle Cell Clinics! 🚌❤️

For individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease, getting to medical appointments can sometimes be a barrier to receiving the care they need. Together, we are working to change that.

Through this initiative, eligible Sickle Cell patients at select participating clinics will have access to NO-COST transportation assistance to and from their medical appointments.

Because access to care should never depend on how you get there. ❤️

This partnership will help:
✨ Remove transportation barriers
✨ Improve access to Sickle Cell care
✨ Support consistent attendance at medical appointments
✨ Help patients stay connected to their healthcare providers
✨ Promote better health outcomes and peace of mind

This is more than transportation. It’s access. It’s opportunity. It’s support. It’s hope.

We are incredibly grateful to Pfizer for partnering with the Armstead-Barnhill Foundation as we continue our mission to improve the health and well-being of individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease.

Together, we can remove barriers. Together, we can improve access. Together, we can change lives. ❤️

In today’s ABF video series, hear from our very own Vera Armstead MSW, LCSW!

As a clinical social worker, Vera understands that SCD impacts more than just the body. Chronic illness affects the mental and emotional health of all those living with SCD, their caregivers and their families.

When SCD patients and families are supported and empowered to share their unique experiences with the disease, we can increase access to mental health support and improve health outcomes for all of us who are impacted.

This story is a reminder that a diagnosis does not define a person.

In our latest video, we hear from a powerful individual living with Sickle Cell Disease who shares her truth: she is more than her condition, more than the challenges, and more than what others may assume. Her voice reflects resilience, identity, and the fullness of a life that cannot be reduced to a diagnosis.

At the Armstead-Barnhill Foundation, we are committed to amplifying stories like hers—stories that bring awareness, inspire compassion, and remind us of the humanity behind every condition.

Join us in supporting the fight against Sickle Cell Disease. Every contribution helps move us closer to better treatments options.
