Thank You

We started this page in an effort to find a bone marrow match for Phoebe by reaching out to fill the need for minority donors and patients.
We learned today that someone who joined the Registry in honor of Phoebe has been identified as a possible match for a searching patient.
Thank you.
To date, 150 people have used Phoebe's link (https://join.bethematch.org/FightForPhoebe) to join the Registry. That's not counting the 153 people who joined in person at drives in Phoebe's name. 
Please continue to spread the word, and thanks to all volunteers who have helped with these drives.
