The cure for blood cancer looks exactly like you! Marrow donors in your community are urgently needed to save lives of patients with diseases like leukemia, lymphoma, or sickle cell anemia. Patients are most likely to match someone who shares their ethnic background. Together we have the potential to truly make a difference in the lives of thousands of men, women and children in need of a life-saving transplant. To join the Be The Match Registry be between the ages of 18 and 44. Registry data shows that transplant doctors request donors in your age range more than 90 percent of the time, because you have the greatest chance for transplant success. Joining takes less than 5 minutes and simply requires you fill out a consent form, give a cheek swab, DONE! Committed donors can save lives. Please sign up to be someone’s CURE, GIVE and help raise funds to assist us with the $100 cost of adding each new donor to the registry, VOLUNTEER and be an advocate in the community to help host events and spread the word!
