Mind if we talk about our heroes for a second?

Donors like Alyssa are heroically making our mission possible by saying “yes” to be a blood stem cell transplant donor for someone in need 💙

Just last year, Alyssa walked by a swabbing booth at Texas State and learned about the crucial need for blood stem cell donors . After swabbing her cheek and joining the registry, it took only a few months before she found out she was a potential match for someone in need! When Alyssa said “yes” to donate, she gave a stranger – a family – hope.

Join us this September at NMDP Unite with Alyssa and hundreds of other supporters of our life-saving work. Together, we’ll celebrate with entertainment, food, games and powerful storytelling. Attendance is completely free and your support could help NMDP save more lives. Register here 👉 https://go.nmdp.org/3Hv5scR

After 56 years of marriage, Joyce and Jerry’s bond only grew stronger throughout Joyce’s blood stem cell transplant journey 💙

After being diagnosed with MDS, Jerry was by Joyce’s side through the entire process. From daily walks in the garden to long hospital nights, they navigated it all together. With the NMDP Peer Connect program, they were paired with another caregiver-patient duo who had been through it all and gave them hope when they needed it the most.

Our volunteers truly understand the transplant journey and are ready to listen and provide honest answers to those who could use a little help. Learn about NMDP Peer Connect and how to sign up as a volunteer or request a connection 👉 https://bit.ly/NMDPPeerConnect

We know just how difficult it can be to talk about blood stem cell transplants to kids, especially if they may be the one receiving a transplant. To make it easier, NMDP developed an animated series called Ava + Bo!

We cover topics like blood stem cell transplantation, how the process works, and potential challenges such as GVHD. Access the complete series in English and Spanish 👉

Did you know that July 15 is Social Media Giving Day? No matter how big or small, a financial gift to NMDP can ensure more donors like Joe can help patients in need!

After losing his beloved childhood soccer coach, who was unable to find a match, Joe saw firsthand just how urgent the need was for blood stem cell donors and joined the NMDP Registry. In 2023, he found out he was a match for someone and courageously said “yes” to donate – even though that meant putting his triathlon training on hold.

Help us say thank you to incredible donors like Joe by making a gift today: https://go.nmdp.org/4lNupir

We love a full circle moment!

Two years ago, Mariel attended a HOSA conference where a blood stem cell transplant recipient met their life-saving donor. The powerful moment inspired her to join the NMDP Registry.

Fast forward to this year where Mariel walked on stage to meet Nicole -- the recipient SHE helped save by donating blood stem cells!
