Attend a Donor Drive

On January 6, 2010, little Sophia Lopez was diagnosed with HLH, a rare blood disease, and now her only hope for survival is a bone marrow transplant from a perfect stranger. But right now, there is no matching donor for Sophia. YOU can help. Come out and register as a bone marrow donor!

Join the bone marrow registry with DKMS Americas and possibly save a life someday. Ten minutes of your time could mean a life time to someone else if you are so blessed as to be a match. The process is simple: A one page application, 5 minutes of educational material about the two ways in which one can donate their stem cells to save another, and two cotton swabs put you in the life lottery where winning means you may save a life--the noblest thing one can do in life. DKMS America's wants you to be in general good health and between 18 and 55.

Currently only 4 in 10 patients will find a matching donor that could save their lives. The students at Lord Fairfax want to beat these odds. The more people who register as bone marrow donors, the better the chances for patients in need.

GET SWABBED. SAVE A LIFE.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society - NYC Chapter is organizing a bone marrow donor drive with DKMS, the world's largest bone marrow donor center. Everyday, thousands of patients search for a lifesaving bone marrow donor. Sadly, 6 out of 10 patients will not receive the transplant they need.

The more donors who register now, the more lives we can save.
