Lack of donors Lack of enough knowledge about the cure itself, Lack of knowledge about the process of donation, Hesitancy regarding effects of donation on themselves Most people think bone marrow donation is painful and they have to pay, but it is not true, it is pain free and it doesn’t cost a penny.

What are the steps? The first step is: Go to and choose join us to register yourself as a donor. The second step is: answer the question about your overall health The third step is: you will receive a swab kit for collect DNA or check cell, follow the instruction and return the kit. The fourth steps is: Just wait to be match.

What will happen after the match? donate blood cells through PBSC process. PBSC donation is a non-surgical procedure done in an outpatient clinic. Then, through a process called apheresis, a donor's blood is removed through a needle in one arm and passed through a machine that separates out the blood-forming cells and given directly into the patient's bloodstream.

Must be a donor It is left up to each and everyone of us to help those in need. There hasn’t been a single concern about safety and health of the donors, so the only investment in saving someone’s life is a few hours of our time. Can you stand and watch a human being die? If not, then please participate in donor’s program and add a remarkable purpose to your life.
