$1500 Raised For Reward Fund For Missing Philly Woman

PHILADELPHIA, PA — Nearly $1,500 has been raised as part of a reward fund for information on the disappearance of Kada Scott, a Philadelphia woman who vanished after leaving work on Oct. 4.

Scott, 23, a recent Penn State graduate, left her job at a nursing home, the Terrace at Chestnut Hill, at around 9:45 p.m. that night.

Terrace is located on the 8300 block of Rodney Street, by the city's far northwest border.

The GoFundMe was launched this week by Scott's father.

"If Kada is found before the funds are distributed, or if law enforcement determines the reward is no longer necessary, any remaining balance will be donated to a verified missing-persons organization or used to assist other families of missing persons," Kevin Scott wrote. "Updates will be shared publicly for full transparency."

Please share, post, and spread this message immediately," he added. "Time is of the essence — your support, shares, and donations could be the key to finding Kada."

Police told 6ABC that while they've struggled to find leads, they are investigating reports from friends that she was being harassed on her phone.

Scott is 5 feet, 6 inches tall and weighs about 120 pounds. Police said she is thin, and has brown eyes and black hair.
