DAPHNE URGENTLY NEEDS A STEM CELL TRANSPLANT TO SAVE HER LIFE.

In May 2025, Daphne was diagnosed with a rare blood cancer. This was a complete shock to her, her family, and loved ones. 

Daphne is a devoted wife of 42 years, mother of three, and grandmother to four young grandchildren. She's an active person who hosts every family gathering, shows up first when someone needs help, and has spent her life putting others before herself while helping to run her family's business. Now she needs others to show up for her.

Her family has been tested and, unfortunately, none of them were her match. This is where you come in. If you are in general good health and from the ages of 18 to 60, please join the registry to see if you are Daphne's lifesaving match.
