His perfect match could be you. If you are between the ages of 18 and 50 and in general good health, you are eligible to participate in a 10- second cheek swab and join the worldwide registry. Join “Warter Strong” Bone Marrow Registration Drive coordinated by Gift of Life Bone Marrow Foundation Sunday, December 21, 2014 , 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM Temple B'nai Abraham 300 E Northfield Rd ( entrance on E. Cedar Street Livingston, NJ In the spirit of community, please come out, get swabbed,make a difference... How does this work? •All it takes is 10 seconds and swabbing the inside of your cheek. It is easy and it is painless. •Though not required, an accompanying donation of $60 to cover processing the swab is greatly appreciated. •The term “bone marrow” is actually outdated because if you are someone's “Miracle Match,” over 80% of donations are through stem cell donation, similar to giving blood. It is much easier for everyone involved. •If you are between the ages of 18 and 50 and in general good health, you are eligible to be screened and join the worldwide registry. •Please take the time by doing this small act of kindness that could yield enormous help. How can you help? •Come to the drive on December 21! •If you have high school or college-age kids who are home on break, encourage them to come and get swabbed as well. The younger the donor, the better. •Consider making a tax-deductible donation at www.gol.org/dc/warter. This directly links you to “Warter Strong.” 100% of your donation will be used to process test kits.
