Thousands of patients hope for a bone marrow donor who can make their life-saving transplant possible. They depend on people like you. You have the power to save a life. You could be the one to save a life. Take the first step today.
The National Marrow Donor Program® (NMDP) and our Be The Match Foundation® are nonprofit organizations dedicated to creating an opportunity for all patients to receive the bone marrow or umbilical cord blood transplant they need, when they need it.
Our mission
Every year, thousands of people of all ages are diagnosed with leukemia and other life-threatening diseases. Many of them will die unless they get a bone marrow or cord blood transplant from a matching donor. Seventy percent of people do not have a donor in their family and depend on our Be The Match Registry® to find a match to save their life.

There are many mentorship pathways available for the nurse who desires to expand upon their daily role in the healthcare industry. If you are interested in learning about how you can become an active leader within the MDONS Chapter please feel free to contact me or anyone of your MDONS board members.
