Bone marrow drive at Stanford Hospital Atrium!

Sonia Rai is a daughter, a granddaughter, a sister, a niece, a friend, and too young to die of leukemia. Will you be the one to save Sonia's life?

Join One Hundred Thousand Cheeks, the Haas Center for Public Service, National Marrow Donor Program and CureSonia for a bone marrow registration drive at Stanford to help give Sonia a fighting chance.

Donating marrow is easy. Getting registered is even easier, and incredibly rewarding. If you can't make the drive, but still want to register, please visit:http://join.bethematch.org/100kcheeks. They will send a cheek swab kit to you directly.

South Asians are vastly underrepresented in the National Bone Marrow registry, and the chances of a positive life-saving match are roughly 1 in 20,000. Please also share this email message with at least 20 people (particularly South Asians), and ask them to do the same. 

Please use the power of your address book, the web, and social networking to spread the message about this event – today more than ever before, we can achieve a broad scale effort and be part of a large online movement to save lives. We need to get the word out quickly. Saving Sonia is about numbers and odds.
