About this Opportunity
Join us at the upcoming RIBC blood drive happening at the New England Institute of Technology to help grow and diversify the stem cell donor registry!
NMDP is an international non-profit organization that works to find cures and save lives of patients who have been diagnosed with blood cancers or blood dieases. Many of these patients are relying on NMDP's stem cell donor registry to help match them with a complete stranger who is willing to donate directly to that patient and help save their life. 75% of searching patients do NOT have a family member able to donate to them, and are therefore relying on NMDP's wonderful community of volunteers to recruit more potential stem cell donors to the registry. You never know who will say yes to joining the registry, and of those yes's, who will go on to save a life.
