  • About Us

    Ara is an international grassroots initiative to combat blood cancers and sickle cell anemia in Africa by recruiting bone marrow donors and promoting cancer control. Our goal is to recruit 30,000 bone marrow donors on the African bone marrow registries by December 2018. We want to educate communities, inspire people, support cancer and sickle cell patients, survivors, and families by connecting them with a community to which they can direct their concerns and queries, and eradicate the stigma that surrounds cancer and blood donation in African communities.
