Shades Day is a social media campaign with the goal of showing support for the sickle cell community and to raise awareness about the symptom of sickle cell retinopathy, which effects the blood vessels in the eyes of some sickle cell warriors
We encourage everyone to show support by sharing pictures with their favorite pair of shades on Facebook and Instagram using the #SickleCellShadesDay hashtag and also donating to help further our mission of increasing awareness for sickle cell disease and trait.
We will be sending out the Shades Day Kit for all of those who sign up. The kit includes items to help you join supporters in supporting the sickle cell community and educating other communities about sickle cell disease and sickle cell retinopathy.
