Why am I asking? Because they all have marrow donor programs. If you, your friends, colleagues and family members tell people they know who live in these countries about their donor programs and ask them to get registered and join, they may very well help to save someone in another part of the world.

The Be The Match Foundation for the National Marrow Donor Program states that 51% of marrow matches now take place internationally where the donor and patient live in different countries. So we can all help to save someone in our own backyard or on the other side of the planet.

There are so many people that do not live in the country they were born in or the country of their ethnicity. And, there are so many people of mixed ethnicities. The best chance to find every single person who needs a transplant a match is to get as many people as we can from all over the world to join their national registries. Please send this link by email or call every person you know telling them about this page on Tami's website and urge them to locate and contact their local donor program to get registered.

Thanks! We really appreciate all the help we can get to spread the word.
