Bone Marrow Registry Drive 11/8

Nov. 6, 2013 by dphillips

What if 5 minutes of your time could save someone else’s life?

Wesleyan’s American Medical Student Association will be hosting a bone marrow registry drive this Friday, November 8th in USDAN 108 from 12:30 to 4:30 PM.

Thousands of patients with blood cancers like leukemia and lymphoma, sickle cell and other life-threatening diseases depend on the bone marrow registry to find a match to save their life.

Although the chances of matching are 1/540 (or .002%), in the past three years we’ve held this drive at Wesleyan, we have found TWO successful matches and two lives were saved as a result.

Joining the registry is only paper work and a cheek swab– no bone marrow donations will be taken at the drive.

For more information about participating, please contact Swetha Mummini at smummini@wesleyan.edu or Kirby Sokolow at asokolow@wesleyan.edu.
