SCHOLARSHIPS
IMM currently offers two education-based scholarships for individuals living with sickle cell disease– The Paradise Scholarship and The Cyntra D. Scott Scholarship. We know that “education” can take many forms. We define "education" as an activity that furthers one’s knowledge base. This could take the form of a workshop, continuing education courses, a degree program, or vocational training.
Award amounts range from $250-$1500, and are determined by the Uniqueness, thoughrouness, and the overall accuracy of the application as well as the availability of funds, the number of applicants. Selection is made by comity.
