CHURCH HOSTS ARMENIAN BONE MARROW DRIVE
Belmont Citizen-Herald, MA
Sept 22 2005
The Armenian Bone Marrow Donor Registry and the Caitlin Raymond
International Registry at the University of Massachusetts Memorial
Medical Center will be holding a donor recruitment drive at the First
Armenian Church of Belmont, 380 Concord Ave.
The drive will take place at the church immediately following services
on Sunday, Sept. 25, and will continue until 4 p.m. Just a few minutes
of your time and a simple mouth swab is all it takes.
The ABMDR’s 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.
Donors must be between the ages of 18 and 60, and be in general
good health.
