Amazing Drive Organizers
DKMS Americas is also a fantastic organization. In fact, they were amazing at Liam's bone marrow drive in PA and we will definitely be working with them again in the near future. - Michelle Schulze, mother of the late Liam Schulze
DKMS Gave Me A Chance to Help
"My life has been affected by a blood disease. My mom was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma and I have been reaching out to help find a cure and be an advocate for leukemia,lymphoma and other blood diseases. I signed-up as a bone marrow donor in hopes to help save a life and to raise awareness of the need for more donors. Thanks to the tremendous help and support of DKMS, they enabled me to organize a bone marrow drive here in New Mexico. Thank you so much for helping me make such a profound difference in so many patients and families lives." Nicole Miner, Miss New Mexico 2009
"I had the privilege as a donor to prolong another’s life."
“My experience with the DKMS organization was memorable. I had the privilege as a donor to prolong another’s life. DKMS allowed me to feel comfortable from the moment I was informed I was a marrow match to the actual donation. DKMS was extremely professional while organizing the transplant.
