Mission & Focus Areas
HFM’s stated mission is to improve the quality of life for people affected by hemophilia, von Willebrand disease, other coagulation disorders, and related complications. Its programs include administrative support and federal pass-through funding for treatment centers; client and family support, including emergency financial assistance; and camping experiences for children affected by bleeding disorders.
HFM’s 2025 filing describes funding treatment centers in Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio. The listed 2025 recipients include universities, pediatric providers, and hospitals. For example, Michigan State University describes its mission as helping students obtain college scholarships, while University Pediatricians describes its purpose as providing medical and surgical services to sick and injured people. Munson Medical Center says it exists to deliver comprehensive quality care in partnership with physicians. These are the grantees’ own mission statements, not statements of HFM’s mission.
HFM also offers scholarships to eligible Michigan residents in the bleeding disorders community and emergency financial assistance to qualifying Michigan residents. These programs provide support to individuals and families rather than grants to outside organizations.
Grantmaking
In filing year 2025, HFM reported 18 grants totaling $789,902. Grant amounts ranged from $24,610 to $79,646, with a median of $41,221. The largest listed awards included $79,646 to Michigan State University, $64,504 to University Pediatricians, $57,000 to Ohio State University, and $50,749 to Indiana Hemophilia and Thrombosis Center. The filing lists the purpose of these grants as Medical Services.
HFM’s 2026 academic scholarship cycle offered two awards of $2,500 each. Applicants had to live in Michigan and be either a person with a bleeding disorder (clotting disorders were excluded) or an immediate family member of someone with a bleeding disorder. The application required an online form, a personal statement, a healthcare-provider letter confirming the bleeding disorder, and one reference letter; transcripts were not required. Previous scholarship winners and relatives of HFM employees were ineligible. Scholarship funds were to be paid directly to the school. The application deadline was March 22, 2026, so this was a past cycle as of September 28, 2026.
For emergency financial assistance, applicants must be Michigan residents with a hereditary bleeding disorder in their household and must not have received HFM assistance in the prior 12 months, except that special circumstances may be reviewed case by case. The applicant’s hemophilia treatment center social worker must submit a referral; people not receiving care at an HTC are directed to contact HFM. Assistance is for temporary financial emergencies, such as eviction or utility shutoff, and depends on available funds.
