Hello APAMSA,
Thanks to all of you, we had a very successful BTM x APAMSA Interchapter Competition. With your help, we were able to add 986 individuals to the bone marrow registry to help narrow the disparities in finding matches for AANHPI recipients!
A word from Be The Match:
A very sincere ‘THANK YOU’ to all APAMSA members and chapters who helped grow the registry with committed individuals willing to donate and provide a stranger with a second chance a life. The nearly 1,000 new potential stem cell donors whom APAMSA had added to the Be the Match Registry this year will give hope to searching patients worldwide. Congratulations on a very successful year and we look forward to our continued partnership to save more lives.
