Andy Beck Memorial Marrow Donor Drive - December 4, 2011

GIVE THE GIFT OF LIFE
PLEASE REGISTER TO BE A DONOR

at the ANDY BECK MEMORIAL

MARROW DONOR DRIVE

 

Sunday, December 4, 2011
10:00 AM - 2:00 PM
at the Robert E. Loup Jewish Community Center
350 S. Dahlia, Denver

Beth Evergreen congregant, Jane, will be meeting her recipient, Fran, for the first time, a year after transplant. Jane and Fran will be at the JCC throughout the drive. They look forward to meeting you there!

Registration is quick, simple and safe, and can save a precious life!

• Good health, between the ages of 18 and 55.
• Complete a brief medical history and allow a simple cheek swab for matching.
• Donors remain on the Registry and may be called upon until age 60.
• Costs are completely underwritten by Love Hope Strength and the JCC.

Tissue types are inherited, and complex. A good match is hard to find. It is up to us with common ancestry to support each other in this lifesaving effort. As the number of donors increases, so do the odds of survival for our loved ones, and others like them.

Dropins welcome, but if you can, please preregister so we can ensure adequate staffing.
