About Sickle Cell Anemia Awareness of San Francisco (SCAASF)

Sickle Cell Anemia Awareness of San Francisco (SCAASF) is a donor-facing 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2014 in memory of the founder’s son, Kareem M. Jones. The organization focuses on education, advocacy, direct community programming, and building local care and resource capacity for people living with sickle cell disease. SCAASF runs recurring community-facing programs including the KMJ Warrior Health Expo/Walk, advocacy and empowerment mini health fairs, community blood drives, a peer support group called "The Pull Up," and a podcast series; it also connects clients to clinical trials and medical resources in the Bay Area. The organization maintains regular public reporting (Form 990 filings) and continued activity in recent years: it has staged annual KMJ community events (documented in 2022–2025), published news and educational items as recently as 2024, and reported contribution-funded revenues and positive net assets in its most recent filings (fiscal year 2023).
