The Hemophilia Association of the Capital Area’s George and Linda Price Scholarship was established to honor the generous volunteerism of George and Linda Price. From the time their youngest son, Greg, was diagnosed with hemophilia B, George and Linda were actively involved with the chapter. They both became members of HACA’s Board of Directors in 1984 and served in various capacities on that board until the mid 1990s. George passed away in 2015, but Linda is still involved in chapter activities.

Members of the Hemophilia Association of the Capital Area who have a bleeding disorder, as well as their siblings, parents or spouses, are eligible to apply. Priority will be given to those members who actively participate in HACA activities and individuals affected with a bleeding disorder. The applicant’s home must be in Prince George’s or Montgomery County, Maryland; Northern Virginia; or Washington, DC.

For 2023-2024, HACA will offer up to $16,000 in scholarships. The award amount will vary based on number of applicants that are selected, including participants in the Job Readiness grant program as well.
