The scholarship is open to residents of Northern Tier of PA State and Southern Tier of NY State (counties include Susquehanna, Bradford, and Lackawanna, Broome, Chenango, Tioga, Cortland, Delaware, Otsego, Schoharie, Tompkins, Chemung, Steuben, and Schuyler.) 

$1000 is provided to individuals for testing and/or treatment of Lyme and Tick-borne Disease.

This scholarship fund was created to celebrate the lives and lasting legacies of Dilon Dickerson and Keara Mitchell by helping individuals and families who are seeking treatment for Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses. The financial burden of specialized Lyme care can be overwhelming. Many patients struggle with the costs of doctor visits, medications, testing and therapies that are often not fully covered by insurance. Through this memorial fund, we hope to ease those burdens by providing financial assistance to those who need it most.

Your support makes this mission possible. Every donation helps bring hope, access to treatment, and encouragement to someone facing the difficult journey of Lyme disease. Whether you choose to donate, share our campaign, or simply keep this mission in your thoughts, your support means more than words can express. Together, we can honor Dillon and Keara by extending compassion, hope, and healing to others. Thank you for standing with Southern Tier Lyme Support, Inc. and helping continue their legacy.
