Sickle Cell Awareness 5K Walk & Run Benefit - Harrington
The Sickle Cell Awareness 5K Walk & Run Benefit is scheduled for April 11, 2026 at Harrington Parks and Recreation, located at 114 E Liberty Street, Harrington, DE 19952. The event is presented as a community fundraiser focused on awareness, support, and funding for Sickle Cell research and advocacy.
The event includes a 5K walk and run and is described as family-friendly, welcoming walkers, runners, and supporters of all ages and fitness levels. An on-site blood drive will run during the event so participants and spectators can donate blood, and a Be The Match bone marrow registry campaign will be available for attendees interested in learning about bone marrow donation and registering as potential matches.
All proceeds are allocated to Sickle Cell research, education, and programs that aim to improve quality of life for individuals and families affected by the disease. The organizer notes a personal family connection to Sickle Cell Disease, which is presented as a motivating factor for hosting this benefit.
