Kevin Child Scholarship (KCS)
The KCS awards $1,000 to eligible individuals living in the U.S. diagnosed with either hemophilia A or B.

2024 Scholarships
Each year, HANDI compiles a list of post-secondary educational scholarships that are available to students living with inheritable bleeding disorders and/or their family members. Eligible disorders, which will vary depending on the specific program, may include hemophilia, von Willebrand disease, and rare/ultra factor deficiencies.
