It was cold and very windy, but our BONE MARROW DONOR DRIVE was a success! We have 35 new donors. About 10 more took the information to register from home and a few could not donate due to their medical conditions.

I learned how much stamina it takes to hold a donor drive! The good people of California’s Central Valley came out for the drive despite the weather. Some people came just to become donors, although they seemed to have a lot of fun at the Spring Street Faire. We managed to hold on to the tent whenever a big gust of Valley wind came through.

Many thanks to Be the Match at the City of Hope for sending Vivian to guide us. Please consider becoming a bone marrow donor. We hope we helped find a match for Krystle Delgado Felten and other people waiting for that one right match.

Krystle was recently diagnosed with leukemia (AML) and is currently in search of a life saving marrow/stem cell transplant donor. What should have been a joyful moment with the return of her husband from a military deployment, has left this 27 year old Filipina/Hispanic woman reaching out to the public for help. Krystle enjoys spending countless hours with her family, friends and dogs.
Please help by attending the marrow drive and join Be the Match Registry. You could be the one to save a life.
