an introduction to our partner: 

           Introducing Our Partner: The Pull-Up!
Sickle Cell Anemia Awareness of San Francisco (SCAASF) is proud to serve as a close collaborator of The Pull-Up —a boldly impactful grassroots organization powered entirely by young Sickle Cell Warriors. Centered in Oakland, The Pull-Up is rooted in the belief that We Are More Than Our Illness and is committed to advancing health equity, cultivating peer mentorship, and championing transformative advocacy in the Sickle Cell community.

           With powerful partnerships across regional and national networks—including UCSF’s Sickle Cell Center of Excellence, Cayenne Wellness Center, the Sickle Cell Consortium, and SCAASF itself—The Pull-Up is building momentum as a rising force for awareness, access, and cultural celebration.We are honored to co-host their inaugural World Sickle Cell Day Health Fair & Celebration on June 22, 2025, at historic Bobby Hutton (DeFremery) Park in Oakland, CA. This joyful day of wellness, education, and community is a testament to The Pull-Up’s mission to center the voices and leadership of Warriors—and to remind us all that,

“We are more than our illness!”.

"The Pull Up" is dedicated to providing a safe and inclusive space where those affected by SCD can come together to share experiences, learn from each other, and engage in activities that promote health and well-being. Our events are designed to raise awareness, offer educational health strategies, and build a strong community support system.

Mission statement: "A safe place, where we foster a community of wellbeing and support, embracing people living with Sickle Cell Disease."

Purpose: We hope to gain a union of support, where we come together to help each other deal with our day to day adversities in life, while living with sickle cell disease. We also want to raise awareness by coming up with different health strategies to educate our community and other healthcare professionals. We promote self advocacy, build a system of support, resources, and education for our community. With this agenda we hope to obtain quality care and empower thy youth to take control of their health.
