Remember this number - 120,000. It might seem like just another number, but 120,000 represents each unique, talented, beautiful person who received a second chance at life through a Be The Match®-facilitated transplant. Patients depend on Be The Match and our supporters to find a match to save their life. As the most comprehensive and diverse marrow registry in the world, we are here to provide one-on-one support to patients and their families every step of the way along the transplant journey.

Every three minutes someone in the United States is diagnosed with a blood cancer like leukemia. For many, their only hope for a cure is a bone marrow transplant. Depending on your ethnic background, the chance of finding a match is between 29% and 79%. Improving the ethnic diversity of the registry improves all patients’ odds of finding a life-saving match, regardless of their ethnic background. Adding more potential donors and cord blood units to increase the ethnic diversity of the registry remains an important focus for Be The Match.

This is where you can help.
