The William E. Proudford Sickle Cell Fund, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization recognized as tax-exempt under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3). Their mission is to support sickle cell awareness, education, state-of-the-art treatment and research, and to bring hope to families affected by this devastating disease.
Our Founder, William E. Proudford, was a devoted family man, colleague, and friend who led by example, shared his joy, but never his sorrows; did not raise his voice above a whisper, and yet spoke with conviction. His calm nature and strong character brought out the best in every person he encountered. Despite a number of physical challenges, including sickle cell disease, progressive and profound hearing loss, diabetes and kidney failure, he always maintained the quiet, unassuming and steady manner that made him the bedrock of his family.
Our Vision:
A World Without Sickle Cell Disease
