Our History

The Kayla Rae' Hope Foundation was established in 2022. Their mission is to raise awareness of Sickle Cell Anemia, advocate and support Sickle Cell families, and promote a healthy network of opportunities for Sickle Cell families. The founder's family understand firsthand because their daughter Makayla was diagnosed with Sickle Cell Disease type SS at six weeks old. After a few hospital stays they discovered that there was a need of support to the families. They wondered, if they were experiencing losses as a team, what were the single families experiencing? Today, they have set a goal to assure that Sickle Cell families have access to assistance.
