It is our mission to serve as an advocate for adults and children in the Northern Virginia area. Heart of Gold Foundation is structured to educate, mentor, and support those that battle with Sickle Cell Disease.

Our vision is to give adults and children a place to go to, when they feel as if no one else understands. It is our hope to provide those in the Northern Virginia Area with an organization that is familiar with the daily struggles and limited resources that are often associated with Sickle Cell Disease. The Heart of Gold Foundation, has chosen to be the backbone for a disease that is close to their hearts, because inside all of us their lies a Heart of Gold. When, a person may feel tired of being sick, tired of just being, they should always know, that we are here, because we have been there. And when they need someone to understand or when they need to feel love, here we are.
