Group seeks Armenian bone marrow donors
Belmont Citizen-Herald, MA

Help save a life. The Council of Armenian American Nurses and the
Armenian American Medical Association are planning a Bone Marrow
Donor Drive. This drive is in conjunction with the Armenian Bone
Marrow Registry and the Caitlin Raymond International Registry at the
University of Massachusetts Memorial Medical Center.
The Armenian Bone Marrow Donor Registry is an independent,
non-governmental, not-for-profit organization whose mission is to
ensure that every ethnic Armenian struck with a life-threatening
blood-related illness is able to find hope for long-term survival
through the identification of a genetically suitable bone marrow
match.
Patients are desperately and literally seeking a savior. Parents
of sick children are racing against time to save their child before
it is too late. Someone in our community may hold the life of a child
in his or her hands.
Donors must be: between 18-55 years old; in general good health;
medically insured with medical insurance information available; and
reside or be employed in Massachusetts.
The drive will take place during the annual bazaar of St. James
Armenian Apostolic Church, 465 Mt. Auburn St., Watertown on Oct. 15
and 16 from 2-7 p.m.
For more information visit the Registry web site, www.abmdr.am
or contact Marilyn Bazarian at 617-484-1072.
