African American Bone Marrow Awareness Month

July 1, 2023 July 31, 2023 CDT

African American Bone Marrow Awareness Month is observed in July. Donating marrow can cure someone with sickle cell anemia or life-threatening blood cancers. But only 6 out of 10 African American patients will receive the bone marrow transplant they need.

Bone marrow transplants often are used to treat leukemia; lymphomas; multiple myeloma; and other nonmalignant blood disorders, such as sickle cell anemia. Help raise awareness and join the registry today!
