Our Story

CHIEDZA AND ALICE was founded in loving memory of our daughter, sister, friend, whose life, courage, and resilience continue to inspire everything we do.

She lived bravely with sickle cell, and her journey highlighted the challenges faced by individuals and families affected by this condition. Our organization exists to honour her legacy by making a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

CHIEDZA AND ALICE is more than an organisation it is a lasting tribute to our daughter, a source of hope, and a commitment to improving the lives of those living with sickle cell every single day.

Every initiative we undertake is rooted in empathy, understanding, and the desire to ensure that no one feels alone on their journey. Through our services, advocacy, and community engagement, we aim to transform lives, inspire hope, and empower individuals to reach their fullest potential.
