Marqus Valentine has beaten sickle cell disease – and the odds. Many sickle cell disease patients do not live into adulthood. Marqus has made it into his 30s thanks to the generosity of blood donors, who have helped him receive more than 500 life-saving donations during his life. He’s grateful to blood donors and is now giving back to help other sickle cell patients in need. About Versiti: Versiti is a fusion of donors, scientific curiosity, and precision medicine that recognize the gifts of blood and life are precious. We are passionate about improving the lives of patients and helping our healthcare partners thrive.
