My Sickled Cells Book Signing
Join Revée Agyepong, the author of My Sickled Cells, Speaking Arrangements, UNITE and BOM YEG at Kingsway Mall for an engaging book signing event. Revée wrote My Sickled Cells to raise awareness for Sickle Cell Disease and empower those with challenges to know that resilience, hope and faith will get you through any situation.
This event, hosted by Rebecca Johnson of Speaking Arrangements, will provide an opportunity for individuals to learn more about Sickle Cell Disease through patient stories, understand the impact of blood donation, schedule an appointment to donate and provide an opportunity to support Black and locally owned businesses at UNITE. Sickle cell disease is an inherited disorder that affects the shape of red blood cells. It is a genetic mutation that is passed through families and disproportionately impacts the Black community. It is characterized with pain, stroke, multiple organ damage and a shortened life span.
