Welcome to my donor circle!

We are here to support Gift of Life Marrow Registry’s mission: to save the lives of people who need a blood stem cell or marrow transplant to have a second chance at life. A transplant from a matching donor can save someone diagnosed with blood cancer like leukemia or lymphoma, an inherited immune disorder like Primary Immunodeficiency or Hyper IgM, and more than 75 other blood diseases like sickle cell and aplastic anemia.

Because stem cell compatibility follows ancestry, for transplants to work, the donor and recipient must have matching immune factors called Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA). When you swab your cheek to join Gift of Life, those swabs are tested for HLA results and stored in an international database so that patients around the world can find matching donors and be saved. Your personal data remains confidential; the only thing they see is your specific HLA makeup.

There are three ways you can help this donor circle:

  1. If you are between 18 and 35 years old and in general good health, click above on the blue Join Registry button to order a swab kit to be sent to your home today. Those 36+ are asked to please fund their kit processing. Join the registry, and you could be our next lifesaving donor!
  2. Each swab kit costs $60 in laboratory fees for testing, so if you click on the Give to Circle button, you can sponsor someone’s kit or give the amount of your choice. Every dollar matters.
  3. Share this circle with others. Click on the gray Share button to post on Facebook or Twitter (now called X) or copy the link to share on other sites.

To the right, you’ll also see a button called “Subscribe.” Click there to get updates! Every time a match or a transplant sponsored by this circle happens, you’ll get a short email to let you know about our success.

Thank you for visiting our Donor Circle. Gift of Life cannot do this lifesaving work without your support.
