marrow donation awareness

Marrow donation awareness involves understanding how donating bone marrow can save lives by providing healthy cells to patients with blood cancers or other disorders. The process typically uses peripheral blood stem cell collection, which is safe and similar to donating blood, or marrow extraction from the pelvis under anesthesia. Donors are carefully matched through a registry and may be asked to donate if a compatible patient needs it. Raising awareness encourages more individuals to join registries, increasing the chances of finding a life-saving match for those in need. Donation is voluntary, safe, and offers a chance to significantly impact a patient’s survival.
