Greatest Needs: Your donation will be applied to where it is needed most within our programs.

Education & Outreach:

This is where the mission of Sickle Cell Awareness Group of Ontario comes to life. The donation will be used to ensure that SCAGO'S  Board of Directors and the Volunteers continue in their mission of reaching and educating the At-Risk groups in the community. It will ensure us tremendous access to educational materials and enable us to visit more groups in churches, mosques, community groups, and individuals.

Remember it is only with Education that we can reduce the number of children being born with Sickle Cell Disease.

Each One Reach Many:

This program enables us to train more volunteers who are able to reach more people in the community. The program has also enabled us to distribute flyers and other educational materials to Doctor's offices; community centers and libraries which has resulted in more community involvement and more people knowing about what their options are in other to prevent more incidence of Sickle Cell Disease 

Anti- Poverty:

This program enables us to provide one time anti-poverty giving of $100-$250/person to individuals in the community who is in dire financial need. This is usually given at the discretion of two or more Board Members. The Anti- Poverty program has also enabled us to connect many in the At-Risk community with those who would provide them with the information that they need in other to better their financial situation. 

Sunday Afolabi Scholarship Grant:

This is given to youths living with Sickle Cell Disease and who are/will be enrolled in an institution of higher learning in the given year. Currently applicants have to apply and selections are made by the Board of Directors. We are always encouraging donations and contributions to this amazing grant that has allowed more youths living with Sickle Cell Anemia  Disease, a little bit more of financial freedom.  Your Contribution will allow more youths to receive this grant.

Workplace Gifts
Growing the "Seed of Giving"
Everyday you are in contact with a number of people. These are the people you work with, your associates, your family, friends, neighbors, and the members of your church, mosque or place of worship. Give them an opportunity to contribute to a cause that is closest to your heart. Asking for help sometimes is a great gift in itself. Set a goal and raise that goal, within a specified time period, and you will encourage your "Seed of Giving" to grow and extend its branches as well.
