The “You Got Swabbed” campaign draws historic numbers to a bone marrow drive held on behalf of Gift of Life Bone Marrow Foundation on the campus of Syracuse University.
Gift of Life has been honored with its inclusion in Slingshot 07-08: A Resource Guide to Jewish Innovation. Compiled and published by 21/64, a division of The Andrea and Charles Bronfman Philanthropies.
Two very special heroes, two courageous transplant recipients and two generous baseball teams recently joined with the Gift of Life Bone Marrow Foundation to make two very special meetings possible.
The New York Mets hosted an extraordinary meeting at Shea Stadium on August 26 as Avraham Goldhar, a bone marrow donor was introduced to Gal Betzalel, the young man whose life he saved one year ago.
For members and volunteers of GesherCity Boston, the Greater Boston Jewish Community’s young adult outreach program, it was also the perfect day to host a donor recruitment drive at the Harvard Hillel in Cambridge.
In August 2005, my father David Margulies donated blood stem cells to a young, Greek girl named Marina who suffered from acute lymphoblastic leukemia. He was almost a complete match for Marina!
