Would you do a simple cheek swab if you knew it could help save someone’s life?
Every 3 minutes, someone in the U.S. is diagnosed with blood cancer, and thousands of those people will need a blood stem cell transplant. Through NMDP, you can register to be a potential donor in minutes with a quick cheek swab and completing a short form.
NYU Langone Health performs nearly 200 transplants each year through Perlmutter Cancer Center’s Blood and Marrow Transplant Program, making it one of the largest programs of its kind in the New York metro area, so we see just how urgent the need is for more donors. That’s why we’ve teamed up with NMDP at NYU Langone Health HYROX New York. Now through June 7th, stop by our booth to learn more, get swabbed, and even check out recovery features like a cold plunge and sauna while you’re there.
Watch to see how simple it is to join the registry. If you get swabbed, tag us and we may repost to our Story!
