How to Save a Life

Become a bone marrow donor.

Yes, it's a big deal. I know, it's a little scary. But you really can save the life of someone's child, someone's mother, someone's father.....or maybe even that nice old guy that lives down the street. Possibly even that crabby old lady that you don't really like, but certainly don't want her to die.

Someone like baby Trevor.

Are you fired up? Are you ready to do it? Good! Visit the National Marrow Donor Program and sign right up. They're going to ask you some pretty personal information. If you're not comfortable giving that kind of information out online, then you can search for a donor center near you.

After you tell them all about yourself, they will send you a nifty little packet where you swab your cheek, send in some cells......and probably never hear from them again.

But on that off chance that you do match with someone, it could save their life.

Unfortunately, the testing does cost a little. $52 actually. But every once in awhile they will offer a promotional code in hopes of quickly matching someone who REALLY needs a donor.

So now is the time. Use this code: G02207 and they will waive they processing fee. Somewhere, some really nice person or organization is willing to pony up $52 to test YOU and see if you match with someone in need.
