CureSonia.org is running its FINAL 3 Seattle-area bone marrow donor registration drives starting this weekend. As you may not know, Sonia Rai is a 24-yr-old South Asian American analyst in Boston, stricken with AML (leukemia) in December, in need of a bone marrow transplant by February. CureSonia.org is running drives throughout the nation to find a match for Sonia.
By registering, you not only give Sonia a shot at life, you also help the whole South Asian community, because we are Severely Underrepresented in the national bone marrow registry, making it so much harder for any of us to find a match, should we be stricken with a blood borne cancer like leukemia.
Please register this weekend at one of our drives:
