Do you like to engage with the community and want to make a difference? Have you been touched by blood cancer?
Every 3 minutes someone is diagnosed with a blood cancer. A matching blood stem cell transplant is the only cure. And while most people believe a match is easily found within the family, 70% of all patients need to reach ot into the community for help. You could help find their life-saving match!
We are looking for volunteers willing to work alongside your local community engagement specialist to:
- Attend covid-safe live drives which could include set up and tear down
- Share patient stories at events or online
- Provide education information about our missio to expand and diversify the Be The Match registry
- Provide information on how to join the Be The Match registry
- Assist registrants with the registry process
Volunteers will recieve training and support to help us at Be The Match raise awareness and increase registrations.
For more information, please reach out to William via email or phone.
