  1. Good day,

    I am the Executive Director of the Sickle Cell Association of Delaware. We are incorporated in the state and will be filing our nonprofit paperwork by the end of the month. As we continue to grow, we need assistance with a number of tasks.
    We would like to ask you to query your membership and ask for anyone that would volunteer to assist us. There is a lot of work to be done to ensure individuals with sickle cell and their families receive the support, education, and care they need for productive lives. We would be grateful for your assistance.
    Thank you.

    Regards,
    Donna Pennington Monroe, MS
    Executive Director
    Sickle Cell Association of Delaware

  2. Hello University of Delaware BSA, My name is Ed Davis, and I am a Social Historian. I desire to be a guest speaker at your campus in the future for an event/program this fall or in the spring of 2023. I have some interesting topics, and my work has been used on ABC News, The Boston Globe, KARK News, BET, NBC, and more. I can send you my bio if requested by your campus/team leaders. I hope that we can dialog. My team generally reaches out to student leaders first as we want to hear from the future makers. Let me know your thoughts, and my assistant will attempt to email you as well. Thanks, https://swark.today/nonviolent-youth-summit-to-take-place-in-dumas-with-social-historian-davis-actress-vivica-fox/

    Please share this resource data with your leadership team and campus family. I look forward to hearing from you as my team waits. Edmond Davis #ProfDavisSays
