Our Mission & Purpose
The James L. Faucett III Sickle Cell Awareness Organization Inc. is a Delaware-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to transforming the lives of individuals and families living with Sickle Cell disease.
We provide outreach, education, research collaboration, and direct support to patients and caregivers — building a stronger, more informed community around one of the most underserved conditions in America.
Started by James L. Faucett III, our organization carries his legacy forward by ensuring no family has to face Sickle Cell disease alone.
Get to Know Us
We are a Delaware-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit built by family, driven by community, and committed to change. Delaware is one of the top three states in the country for Sickle Cell disease burden, yet it remains the only state in the surrounding region without a funded adult Sickle Cell specialty center. We are here to close that gap connection.
