This collage captures the North Jersey Alumnae Chapter’s participation in the Donna T. Darrien Sickle Cell Walk, an event dedicated to raising awareness about sickle cell disease and supporting individuals and families affected by the condition. NJAC sorors gather under the chapter’s tent and along the walking route, demonstrating solidarity, compassion, and commitment to improving health outcomes within the community. Their presence helps amplify education about the disease, promote early testing, and advocate for increased resources and research funding.

Aligned with Delta Sigma Theta’s Physical and Mental Health thrust, this initiative highlights NJAC’s dedication to addressing health disparities that disproportionately impact the Black community. By walking, volunteering, and engaging with attendees, sorors help strengthen community connections while honoring the legacy of Donna T. Darrien, whose advocacy continues to inspire ongoing action. The event underscores the importance of collective support, awareness, and empowerment in the fight against sickle cell disease. Through their participation, NJAC reinforces its mission to uplift communities through meaningful service and health-focused outreach.
