World Bone Marrow Donor Day

Every third Saturday of September, we celebrate World Bone Marrow Donor Day — honoring those who save the lives of children with blood cancer. Bone marrow transplants are often needed when standard treatments fail and can come from relatives or kind strangers in donor registries. If you’d like to help but don’t know how, write to us — we’ll guide you. After a transplant, kids need vital medications to fight infections and recover safely. Thanks to your support, we help fund these lifesaving treatments.
