For patients with life-threatening blood cancers like leukemia and lymphoma, and other life-threatening diseases, a cure exists.
We are a community of donors, volunteers, health care professionals and researchers who deliver cures by helping patients get the life-saving marrow or cord blood transplant they need. Our passion to save lives drives us to help more patients survive each year.
Be The Match raises funds to support three key areas:
1. Help patients overcome financial barriers to transplant.
We raise funds to help patients receive the life-saving transplant they need. Since insurance doesn’t cover all the costs that come with a transplant, many families are not able to afford treatment. But there is hope. And it comes from people like you.
2. Grow the registry to create more matches.
A transplant may be a patient’s only hope for a cure. But patients need donors who are a close match. While millions have joined the Be The Match Registry, many patients still can’t find a match, particularly those with diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds. Your contributions add more potential donors to the registry so transplants can become a reality for all patients.
3. Fund life-saving research.
Be The Match has been saving lives for more than 30 years. Our dedicated research program leads cutting-edge studies to improve survival rates, use transplant for other rare diseases and combat post-transplant infections. Your gift funds clinical trials and observational studies to provide cures and improve quality of life.
