Happy to sponsor a scholar. Please apply for the scholarship below.

🎓 Partnership Announcement 🎓

The MTS Sickle Cell Foundation is honored to have the support of Carol’s Promise Sickle Cell Foundation of DFW as a scholarship partner for our Warrior on the Rise Scholarship Program!

This year, we received 102 applications from scholars impacted by sickle cell disease — including warriors, siblings, and children of warriors. While our foundation is currently able to fund 10 scholarships, partners like Carol’s Promise Sickle Cell Foundation of DFW are helping us expand what is possible.

Their support represents more than a scholarship. It is a powerful reminder to our scholars that they are seen, supported, and surrounded by a community that believes in their future.

We are deeply grateful for partners who understand the importance of investing in education, health equity, and the next generation of leaders impacted by sickle cell disease.

Please join us in thanking Carol’s Promise Sickle Cell Foundation of DFW for standing with our scholars and helping us continue to build momentum for the 2026 scholarship season.

Together, we are stronger. Together, we rise.
