MACON, Miss. (WCBI) – A benefit will be held at Mt. Olive M.B. Church in Mashulaville on March 1st to help Sequoia Yates’ family with medical costs.

Yates is the 11 year-old Noxubee County girl battling sickle cell anemia.

She has been back at B.F. Liddell Elementary for two weeks.

Yates and her family have been making trips to Jackson for medical treatment for years.

She will soon need another surgery.

That’s why the community is rallying around the little girl, once again.
