Monday, January 16, 2017
1:30 pm - 3:30 pm

In honor of their Founders' Day as well as MLK Day, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc. will be hosting a bone marrow donor drive in partnership with Be The Match Foundation. Registering is easy and only involves some paperwork and a simple cheek swab. Only 1 in every 540 people are called as a match and most donations are similar to plasma or blood donation. Joining the registry is not a binding commitment. You can decide to donate or not if you are called as a match. Sign up is simple and easy but it is a decision that could save a person's life. We invite all faculty, staff, and students between the ages of 18 and 44 to join. Visit bethematch.org to learn more about joining the registry.
