Georgia Public Libraries
Sickle Cell Awareness Initiative
Georgia has about 14,000 residents with Sickle Cell Disease, making the state one of the top five in the United States for the number of people living with the disease. Public libraries are a great place to reach a diverse population with public health information.
To support awareness efforts in Georgia, MTS Sickle Cell Foundation, in collaboration with the Georgia Sickle Cell Data Collection Program at Georgia State University, are proud to partner with the Georgia Public Library Service (GPLS) to help raise awareness surrounding Sickle Cell Disease and Sickle Cell Trait through the 409 public library facilities across Georgia, with the potential of reaching up to 10.8 million library card holders.

Warrior On The Rise Scholarship Program
Sickle Cell Disease takes a lot from warrior families.
The ability to go to college should not be one of them.
The objective of our Warrior On The Rise Scholarship Program is to support Sickle Cell Disease patients and their families in the United States. The program gives warriors and their family members the opportunity to continue their education and pursue their college dreams.
Ten $1,000 academic scholarships will be awarded for the upcoming academic year.
Application for Fall Semester 2025 will be opened from December 25th, 2024 to April 30th, 2025.
