Volunteer: Register as a Stem Cell Donor!

By joining the NMDP donor registry, you could help save the life of someone with blood cancer. Matching donors must be very specific—similar to organ donation—but the process to join the registry is simple, and donation is simple and painless like giving a blood donation.

To get started, register online and NMDP will mail you a cheek swab kit. Swab the inside of your cheek, mail the kit back, and confirm your registration by text.

Joining the registry does not mean you will definitely be called to donate. You may never be matched, or it could take months or even years. However, registering means that if you are identified as a match, you are willing to move forward with the donation process.

To register, simply do so on the NMDP website: https://my.nmdp.org/s/join?language=en_US&joinCode=marrow17&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21894551707&gbraid=0AAAAADRYjn-PBU1U4ezaiuwD36FRq6yvQ&gclid=CjwKCAjwpcTNBhA5EiwAdO1S9heuxPe0W3eIoxKrs6Ytrnav8LdeNsvJ7TWVMTKkb6dbXf3R3Y6tPBoCxHwQAvD_BwE

For approval of hours, please submit proof of your registry and/or proof of your response to the text from NMDP confirming your spot on the registry.
