OVER 200 POLICE CADETS IN YEREVAN JOIN THE RANKS OF ABMDR (ARMENIAN BONE MARROW DONOR REGISTRY )
March 25, 2015
A total of 233 young police cadets at the Police Academy of the
Republic of Armenia joined the ranks of the Armenian Bone Marrow
Donor Registry (ABMDR).
The cadets joined the registry as potential bone marrow stem cell
donors, during recruitment drives that were held on the premises of
the Police Academy, in Yerevan, on March 17 and 24. The drives were
led by ABMDR executive director Dr. Sevak Avagyan and ABMDR medical
director Dr. Mihran Nazaretyan.
"It was marvelous to see the cadets' enthusiasm and spirit of
volunteerism during the recruitments," Dr. Avagyan said.
"In addition to the cadets of the Police Academy, hundreds of men and
women serving in Armenia's armed forces as well as first responders
have joined the ranks of ABMDR this year and in the recent past,
bringing their practical support to the registry's life-saving
mission," said Dr. Frieda Jordan, president of ABMDR. "By joining
our organization, these dedicated service men and women are setting
a wonderful example for Armenian youths everywhere."
As Dr. Avagyan thanked the leadership of the Police Academy and the
cadets for making the recruitments a great success, he announced that
the recruitment drives at the academy will become an annual tradition.
