It's week two of Sickle Cell Awareness Month and the community is on fire with activities and campaigns to bring education and understanding of SCD to the masses. Here's how some people are making the most of September:

@XickleRBC My son has sickle cell (SS) and I've been advocating on Instagram. Seems like a small thing, but at least it's something, right? — Kayla Craig (@kaylacraig) September 4, 2015

It is officially #SickleCellAwarenessMonth. Donning my #RedAndBlack and repping my team, #TeamSickleCell. We've lost a lot of soldiers this year and I'm determined to #BreakTheSilence and make sure that the world knows what #SickleCellAnemia is doing to us.
