Opportunity Details

Join the Bone Marrow Registry Drive

If you are between 18-44, in good health, and willing to help any patient in need, you can join the Be The Match® Registry. A consent form and a cheek swab are all you need to join the registry. Why join? Thousands of patients with leukemia or other life-threatening disease depend on the Be The Match® Registry, to find a life saving donor.  70% of patients needing a marrow transplant do not have a matching donor in their family. Each year, 10,000 patients' only hope for a cure is a transplant from someone outside their family. 

This project is a part of 9/11: Serve + Remember.
