The week of September, 2021!

What
We are kicking off all of the 2021 March for Marrow Virtual Events with this celebration in the week we celebrate patients and families fighting bone marrow failure diseases worldwide. We are raising awareness and funds through this event to search for a cure for bone marrow failure disease and to support the patients who are living with it!
Participants in the March for Marrow will receive a t-shirt if located within the United States. For more info on how to register, start your fundraising team, and spread the word, look over this easy-to-use toolkit!
Thank you to our sponsors for providing this information for our Welcome Kit!
We have worked with DKMC for this event to set up a Virtual Bone Marrow Registry Drive to help all patients fighting a bone marrow failure disease! Every 3 minutes, someone in the U.S. is diagnosed with a blood cancer, many of whom can be saved with a bone marrow transplant. Six out of 10 will never receive this! Together WE can change that. Become a registered bone marrow donor & make a huge impact on someone’s life.
Event Goal Help reach our goal to provide patients and family services!
Timeline
