The public is encouraged to participate by registering for the race, fundraising and/or volunteering at the event.

Every year 10,000 patients with disease like leukemia, lymphoma and sickle cell anemia need a marrow transplant but have no donor match in their family. They depend on Be The Match® to help them find a potential marrow donor and receive the transplant they need. For many, a marrow transplant is their best or only hope for a cure.

Every step participants take helps patients receive the marrow transplant they need, when they need it.

Be The One Run, Long Beach raises funds to add more members to Be The Match Registry®, increasing the chances that more patients will find a match.

Register today for the Be The One Run or support a runner or walker with a contribution. Visit BeTheOneRun.org to register, fundraise or to volunteer during the event.
