Scripps Health and Be The Match will host a special event to register potential bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cell donors into a registry to help patients with life-threatening blood cancers and other blood diseases. Adults 18 to 44 who are in good health and willing to donate to anyone in need are sought to volunteer to join the Be The Match Registry, the world’s largest and most diverse listing of potential bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cell donors. A simple cheek swab is all that’s needed to join the registry, which matches donors with patients worldwide who need a transplant due to blood cancers like leukemia or lymphoma, or other blood diseases like sickle-cell anemia. Parking will be free and no advance registration is required. Volunteers will only be contacted if they are a match for someone in need. For more information, call 800-727-4777.
