Simon is a 2^nd grade student at St. Ann School. He has been fighting leukemia for 5 years, but has relapsed twice; he needs a bone marrow transplant. During November and December 2011, he has been receiving treatment in preparation for his transplant, which is scheduled to occur January 26, 2012.

There are so many children and adults who need this life-saving transplant – it could be your child, your sibling, your parent, your friend. Let's celebrate Simon and his fight by getting swabbed!
We are working with the largest bone marrow donor center in the world, DKMS, to host a bone marrow donor drive. The donation process is simple – some paperwork and a quick cheek swab. Each swab is processed by DKMS and entered into their world-wide registry. Each time a patient needs a match, the registry is reviewed. If a match is found on the registry, the individual is contacted and consent is requested (each individual listed on the registry has the opportunity to decline participation if contacted). It’s that simple.
Please join us on Saturday, February 18, 2012 and GET SWABBED!
