Asistir a campañas de donantes de médula

Las campañas de donantes de medula ósea son una de las formas más importantes con las que construimos nuestra red de donantes. Le ofrece la oportunidad de aprender más sobre nosotros y muchas veces se puede conocer a la familia de los pacientes. Usted puede ser parte de nuestro esfuerzo por salvar vidas asistiendo a una campaña y haciéndose una simple prueba de hisopado bucal para registrarse. Es así de simple. Tan sólo 10 minutos de su tiempo pueden ayudar a un paciente con cáncer en la sangre a tener una segunda oportunidad en la vida.
