Thousands of patients with leukemia and other life-threatening diseases
depend on bone marrow transplants to save their lives. 10,000 patients a
year do not find a matching donor in their family and turn to bone marrow
registries for someone who can give them the chance for a cure.
Want to save a life? Register to become a bone marrow donor. Joining is
easy and only requires a cheek swab. Donating is painless and there is an
incredible need for donors age 18-24.
