SCHOLARSHIPS

Scholarships

Since the inception of this organization we have been providing three or more scholarships each year to students with sickle cell disease who are pursuing higher education.

To date we have given over $100,000 in scholarships to new and past recipients.

In 2025 we awarded $10,500 to students with a scholarship toward college tuition.

Congratulations to our scholarship awardees:
