Call for bone marrow donation
We would like to raise awareness in our school community of the importance of bone marrow donation.
Every year, thousands of patients need a bone marrow transplant from a donor with a compatible genetic profile.
This year, this problem concerns us even more as one of our students needs to find a compatible donor.
Matching donors are rare… It is therefore important to increase the number of volunteer bone marrow donors.
Marrow donation is one of the treatments of choice, if not the only one, for certain cancers and hematological diseases.
Together, we can help give everyone the best chance at life and save the life of someone waiting for a bone marrow transplant.
