I’d like to help save the lives of people who need a marrow transplant from an unrelated donor, so I’m sharing the opportunity with you.
Did you know:
– Every day, more than 6,000 people search the National Marrow Donor Program® (NMDP) Registry for a life-saving donor.
– Only 3 in 10 patients get the transplant that could save their lives.
– Seventy percent of patients will not find a match in their family.
You can change that!
From May 5 to May 19, the Thanks Mom awareness and recruitment campaign of the NMDP has an ambitious goal: to add 46,000 new members to the Registry of marrow donors and raise $100,000.
I encourage you to join me in making the Thanks Mom campaign a success. What better way to say “Thanks, Mom” for giving you the gift of life than to share that gift with another.
