Yesterday, we went to the Asian American Culture Festival in Richardson to spread our message about the bone marrow registry. As you all know, it can be especially hard for people of ethnic minorities, such as Asian Americans, to find a match to a variety of cultural and medicinal stigmas. It was very hot, but we powered through the heat for 4 hours and had a successful turnout. In total, we added 50 people to the national registry, and each one of these people could potentially save a life. This raises our grand total to nearly 900 people!
We had an amazing group of volunteers come out for this drive, so special thanks to all of them. It was a great combination of returning volunteers and brand-new ones, so thank you to all the volunteers that took time out of their busy schedules to help promote a great cause!
