Andrea’s Angel Walk
Andrea’s Angel Walk
Andrea’s Angel Walk is an annual 5k walk/run named in honour of Andrea Ndukwu. It’s dedicated to raising awareness of Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). SCD is a rare blood disorder affecting red blood cells and their ability to provide oxygen while flowing through the body. Despite being the #1 inherited blood disorder sickle cell patients face many barriers to care. Our 8th annual Andrea’s Angel Walk will be at Kildonan Park on September 6th 2025. The walk will start at 10:00am. More details below
Andrea Ndukwu
Andrea was a fierce sickle warrior who lost her battle to the disease at the tender age of seven. Her spirit and infectious smile precedes her and inspires this event.
The namesake walk is used to honor such a beautiful soul. Although her physical presence is seriously missed, this guardian angel has always been a constant source of love and light to the Ndukwu family.
Andrea’s Angel Walk is held annually in September which is Sickle Cell Awareness Month. Funds raised help us support families living with Sickle Cell Disease right here in our community. Your contributions will go towards community events, educational outreach, and pushing for better care for those living with Sickle Cell Disease in Manitoba. Every dollar helps carry Andrea’s spirit forward. Building a stronger, more compassionate support system for those who need it most.
Help us reach our goal!
