Hellenic Bone Marrow Drive
BECAUSE OF YOUR ANCESTRY,
YOU ARE NEEDED AS A BONE MARROW DONOR!
A bone marrow donation can help cure life-threatening diseases such as
leukemia. Patients are more likely to find a matched donor within there
own ethnic group, and there is a demand for minority ethnic background donors.
This drive is sponsored by the family of a Greek woman who is currently
in need of a bone marrow donor, however all ethnic backgrounds are
encouraged to become bone marrow donors.
For more information on what is involved in becoming a bone marrow donor
please visit the Donor Page or the Steps page of the National Marrow
Donor Program.
