The Marcy Shulman Memorial Organization Grant Program is accepting applications for its 2021-2022 grant cycle. The grant is offered annually to provide assistance and support to community, local and national non-profit organizations that offer programs and services to individuals and families with chronic illnesses in the United States, with priority on those within the bleeding disorders community.

The Marcy Shulman Memorial Organization Grant Program is named in honor of one of the founding members of the Colburn-Keenan Foundation’s Board of Directors, Marcy Shulman. Marcy was a long-time friend, co-worker, and collaborator of the Foundation’s founders, Donald Colburn and Kathy Ann Keenan. Marcy helped bring to fruition Don’s and Kathy’s final project, the Colburn-Keenan Foundation, following their passing from cancer in 2006. Marcy worked tirelessly developing the support programs and fine-tuning the mission of the Foundation, even as she battled cancer which would finally claim her in December of 2010.
