Bone Marrow Registry

Summit Volunteer First Aid Squad, Inc., 54-56 Elm St, Summit, NJ | Get Directions »
FREE

Jake is 5 1/2 years old and was recently diagnosed with Severe Aplastic Anemia. For reasons currently unknown, Jake’s bone marrow has stopped working – which means that it's not producing red or white blood cells or platelets.


We’re looking for people to do a simple cheek swab to see if their marrow matches Jake’s. All donors are welcome, as there are thousands of patients like Jake who depend on the Be The Match® registry to find a donor who can give them the chance for a cure.
