Helping hematologists conquer blood diseases worldwide; advancing hematology research, education, training, and patient care.
American Society of Hematology Inc uses large, restricted program grants to support hematology training, research, and patient-focused initiatives. Its two largest recent awards both went to Ash Registry Inc in Washington, DC, with grant support above $1 million in consecutive years, showing a strong commitment to subrecipient program operations. The foundation also gave program support to Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati for hematology-related work. The organization’s active programs point to a clear emphasis on building the hematology workforce and research pipeline. That includes year-long clinical research training, early-career awards for physicians and investigators, and funding streams that support global collaboration and capacity building. Sickle cell disease is also a distinct funding area, with a dedicated initiative fund that backs workshops, educational resources, and the ASH Center for Sickle Cell Disease Initiatives. Together, these grants and programs show a funder working through organizations that can deliver training, mentoring, research support, and disease-specific programming.
A major thread in the foundation’s giving is career development. Through the ASH Clinical Research Training Institute, it supports trainees and junior faculty in a year-long education and mentoring program focused on clinical research. The Physician-Scientist Career Development Award also provides a one-year, full-time research experience for medical students between years. Research training is another core area. The ASH Research Training Award for Fellows is designed to encourage junior researchers in hematology and related training programs to pursue academic hematology, while the ASH Award for Research Careers in Hematology supports early independent investigators. Sickle cell disease receives dedicated attention through the ASH Foundation — Sickle Cell Disease Initiative Fund, which supports workshops, educational resources, CONSA activities, and the ASH Center for Sickle Cell Disease Initiatives. The ASH–EHA Translational Research Training in Hematology adds a global mentoring and training dimension.
Typical grant size is substantial: the 25th percentile is $702,241, the median is $1,037,890, and the 75th percentile is $1,192,396. The recent record also shows a repeated award to Ash Registry Inc in 2023 and 2024, suggesting ongoing support rather than one-off funding. The foundation is classified as a regular funder and makes restricted program grants to subrecipient organizations. It does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments.
