About Max

Max is a vibrant, energetic 15 year old.  He excels in school, sports, and music. He just started 9th grade. He needs a stem cell transplant to fix his bone marrow.  

How YOU(!!) can help

Because bone marrow matches are strongly influenced by genetic background, Max’s unique heritage makes finding a match harder than usual.  

Finding a donor can be incredibly challenging, but if you match, donating is typically a simple outpatient process, most often done through a process similar to donating blood. Helping begins with a quick cheek swab to see if you might be a match. Request an online swab kit to help Max or other patients like him.  Please swab today - you might be the only person in the world who can save him.
