Founded by Eva Mack, former Mayor of West Palm Beach, the Sickle Cell Foundation began as a mission to support those living with sickle cell disease and has since grown to address critical needs across our community, guided by compassion, advocacy, and a commitment to lasting change.
Today, as SCF we serve vulnerable individuals through three core programs: a Fatherhood Program that equips fathers with the skills and support needed to build strong, engaged families; an Infant Mortality Program that provides education, resources, and self-care support to promote healthy pregnancies and newborns; and Sickle Cell Support services that champion those affected through awareness, access to treatment, and community-based care. By planting the seed of opportunity and securing access to education and care, we help families move forward with hope while building a stronger foundation for our community’s future.
