Our bodies love the sun! However, excessive sun exposure can damage our skin and eyes. Take the right precautions, like checking the UV Index on your favorite weather app and using sunscreen when it is 3 or higher. These tips are especially important during the peak sun hours of 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

How to Observe World Sickle Cell Awareness Day on June 19:
🔈Raise awareness
The best thing you can do to observe World Sickle Cell Awareness Day is to spread awareness in your community about sickle cell disease. Help others get educated.
🩸Become a donor
One of the impactful ways in which you can help sickle cell disease patients is by becoming a blood or bone marrow donor. Since the patients occasionally need blood transfusions, your blood will help them.
✒️Share your story
If you are someone who is affected by sickle cell disease or if you know someone who has been affected by the disease, share the story on social media. Knowledge is power.
