5K Swab Challenge – Stem Cell Donor Drive
From 12:00 PM to 3:00 PMJoin us on Saturday, Feb 4, for a unique, important event hosted at our church by Stem Cell Donor Drive 4 Dorothy (DD4D) – a Canadian charity committed to increasing the Black donor pool in Canada’s national stem cell registry through awareness, education, active recruitment, and partnerships. Their Black History Month kick-off goal is to recruit 5000 Black Canadian men and women aged 17-35 to be potential donors in the national stem cell registry. The stark reality is that the national stem cell registry has a mere 2.33% potential Black stem cell donors, and as a result, patients with deadly blood cancers and other life-threatening blood diseases often die waiting for a stem cell transplant. Join us and swab! You could save a life.
