It's World Sickle Cell Day, and we're proud to honor sickle cell warriors and the community of blood donors who surround them!

Jacquelyn Mosley-Haram became an advocate for those living with sickle cell disease after her daughter, Ashanti, was diagnosed with sickle cell disease as a baby.

"When I found out, my heart just sank," said Jacquelyn.

Sickle cell disease affects more than 100,000 people in the United States and causes red blood cells to change from soft and round to hard and crescent-shaped. This can prevent oxygen from flowing properly and can cause severe pain, tissue and organ damage, strokes and more. Blood transfusions can help alleviate some of these symptoms, and Jacquelyn says Ashanti has received multiple blood transfusions

In 2013, Jacquelyn co-founded SCACURE, which stands for 'Sickle Cell Anemia Cure,' to educate, support and empower those living with sickle cell disease.

“For me, it’s about helping sickle cell patients understand that they are not alone in this journey. Even their caregivers are not alone, because there are so many people in the community who are willing to help," said Jacquelyn.

“In a matter of three minutes, the outside of my house was a wreck.”

Vincent is one of many residents impacted by the severe weather that swept through our region on June 11. On Monday, our volunteer Cathy Herbert met Vincent while distributing cleanup supplies in Muncie. He was grateful for the items we were able to provide.❤️

Thank you, Cathy, for your commitment to helping others and for being there when your community needs you most.

✨ Volunteer Spotlight: Chris O'Hara

Chris is among the many volunteers who answered the call to assist those impacted by the recent storms and tornadoes that swept through Northern and Central Indiana.

We met Chris at the shelter in Highland, were he was providing care and comfort to families. He told us that he joined the Red Cross about five years ago as a shelter volunteer to help his community during emergency situations. Chris who was also without power at home, put his own needs aside to ensure that others have the support they needed following the storms.

Thank you, Chris, for your dedication and compassion. 💕

This Monday, our volunteers are out in the community distributing emergency supplies to those impacted by last week’s severe storms. In Muncie, they met extraordinary people like Shane and Demarius.

Shane drove from Fort Wayne to lend a hand to his friend, whose home sustained damage during the storm. He told our team that the storm had taken down a 100‑year‑old oak tree on the property.

Volunteers also met Demarius as he and his dad worked together to clear debris.

Meeting individuals like Shane and Demarius remind us of the power of community and why our work matters.
