International nonprofit DKMS is partnering with Be A Hero Become a Donor at the Donate Life Walk in Fullerton, CA on April 28th, 2018. DKMS will offer the opportunity for volunteers to become real-life heroes. Volunteers will help register others to the bone marrow registry to help cancer patients in need.

Every three minutes, someone is diagnosed with a blood cancer or blood disorder in the U.S. For many patients, a bone marrow or blood stem cell transplant is the best chance at survival. 70 percent of patients must rely on an unrelated stranger who is virtually their genetic twin to donate. Unfortunately, less than half of those seeking a transplant will find a match. DKMS hopes to change those odds!

Please join us to help turn everyday people into superheroes!

If you are interested in being a volunteer, please watch our training video at the link below. Please contact Gina at ginacinsc@aol.com or call her at 949-842-9975. Thank you!
