ABOUT CSCF

Candice’s Sickle Cell Fund, Inc. (CSCF, Inc.) was Incorporated in December of 2000. We are a tax exempt 501(c)(3) non-profit organization EIN# 134147927.  By establishing Candice’s Sickle Cell Fund, we are dedicated to improving services to those who suffer from sickle cell disease.

“Hello, my name is Candice Young-Deler and in spite of having sickle cell disease, I have overcome many obstacles. Achieving outstanding grades while attending school was a task, which limited my chances for a scholarship. Because of severe pain caused by sickle cell crises, I constantly struggled with school related work. I found it very difficult, but not unattainable. For this reason, we assist students with sickle cell disease by awarding a $1,500 scholarship to three individuals annually.”
