When families share what needs to change, we need leaders who listen—and stay committed to helping us move that change forward.

Representative Omari Crawford has been that kind of partner to the MTS Sickle Cell Foundation. ❤️ We are proud to honor Representative Omari Crawford with the Sickle Cell Champion Award at our 11th Annual Sickle Cell Awareness & Support Holiday Breakfast! Representative Crawford took our community’s concerns to heart and helped carry them into Georgia’s legislative process. His leadership on HB 334 reflects the importance of having someone at the Capitol willing to advocate alongside families living with sickle cell disease. For us, this recognition is personal. We know the conversations, persistence, and partnership it takes to turn a family’s lived experience into a call for change. Representative Crawford has been part of that journey with MTS, and we are grateful for his commitment to seeing it through. Representative Crawford, thank you for listening to our families, standing with our foundation, and using your platform to advance the needs of the sickle cell community. We look forward to celebrating you! ✨ Join us in congratulating Representative Omari Crawford, our Sickle Cell Champion! 👏🏾 ************** Event Details 🚫 REGISTRATION CLOSED 📅 Saturday, December 19, 2026 🕙 10:00 AM–2:00 PM 📍 Flint River Community Center 153 Flint River Road, Riverdale, GA 30274 #SupportSickleCell #SickleCellAwareness #HolidayBreakfast2026 #SickleCellChampion
