Swab for Janet Liang at Teachers College
Just a quick drive announcement for any folks in New York City!
Janet Liang is still searching for a donor match in the bone marrow registry! Despite the fact that her initiative has helped to register over 13,000 people and resulted in marrow matches for several others, Janet herself still needs a donor. You could be the one to save her life. If you're in New York City, please consider visiting Teachers College at Columbia University THIS THURSDAY to see if you're a match!
Drive details:
- Who: Team Janet, Volunteers from Teachers College (and friends of cheekswab!)
- Where: Everett Lounge, 525 West 120th Street
- When: 3:00pm - 9:00pm
- Why: To save lives!
Remember that all the information you need with regards to the need, the process and frequently asked questions can be found throughout this site. Get informed, get convicted, and get registered!

While the drive on Valentines Day for Janet Liang fell through due to some last minute issues, I will be on campus at George Mason University this Thursday to register donors at a drive coordinated by the GMU Vietnamese Students Association. Please come out to the Johnson Center for a short presentation and swabbing drive! I'll be available to answer any questions you have about the process, as will a friend of mine who recently donated marrow in December.
