Bone Marrow Registration Drive

The Flushing Cancer Action Council and the New York Blood Center are hosting a Bone Marrow Registration Drive on Monday, March 28th at Flushing Library (41-17 Main Street, Flushing 11355) from 2-8 p.m.  To sign up, please call (718) 661 - 1200, extension 0.  To join you only need to be between the ages of 18 and 60, be willing to donate to any patient in need and meet the health guidelines. 

Thousands of patients depend on the Be The Match Registry to find a donor who can give them a chance for a cure.  You have the power to heal, the power to save a life.  Take the first step and join the registry.  Joining the registry does not mean that you will necessarily be called upon to donate.  To join the registry only requires a quick and painless cheek swab and completion of an application.
