Who are we searching for?

Are you aged 18-35, weigh over 50 kg and are in good health? Then you are the ideal candidate! All you need is 10 minutes of your time, fill in a short questionnaire and have a sample taken from your mouth with a cotton swab.

Why is this important?

• One in four patients in need of a bone marrow transplant does not have a donor on the registry with the necessary genetic match. Help change their fate and become a hero!
• A patient who is about to undergo a bone marrow transplant has no other hope of recovery.
• Registration does not mean donation; only about 1% of all registrants donate.
• You can donate in two ways: a needle puncture from the pelvic bone under full anesthesia or by separating directly from the blood, which looks similar to donating blood plasma and doesn't hurt!
