November is National Marrow Awareness Month

Are you awaiting a bone marrow transplant? Did you know November is National Marrow Awareness Month? This may be the perfect time to plan a bone marrow drive! To plan a drive, simply call your local bone marrow recruitment center, and they will walk you through the process. Click here to find a recruitment center in your area.

Seventy percent of bone marrow patients do not have a matched donor in their family. They depend on the Be The Match Registry to find an unrelated donor. Encourage people to become a bone marrow donor today!
