Every 3-4 minutes, someone in the U.S. is diagnosed with a blood cancer like leukemia or lymphoma. It can happen to anyone, at any time. But so can a cure. Be The Match® connects patients with a matching donor for a life-saving blood stem cell transplant. The Be The Match® registry serves as the connection between patients searching for a cure and their life-saving blood stem cell or marrow donor. Become a potential life-saver to patients battling blood cancers or blood diseases in need of a donor.
Join Sigma Alpha Epsilon on Monday, October 9th in joining the Be The Match® donor registry and help to provide a cure for those suffering from various types of blood cancer. A simple mouth swab is all it takes to join the registry, and most people are never called on to donate. However, joining the registry is the only way for an exact match to be found for those needing a marrow donation. Anyone can donate! Regardless of age, race, gender identity, or sexual orientation, we encourage every member of the community to help Be The Match® find a donor for everyone.
For more information about the registry and the good work Be The Match® does, visit bethematch.org, or contact a brother in Sigma Alpha Epsilon.
