Howdy MAPS!
Thank you to all who volunteered for the bone marrow registry drive and/or signed up to be a bone marrow donor. MAPS has never hosted something like this before, so big shout out to our President, Sydney Quintana, for setting this up! DKMS is an international non-profit organization that is fighting against blood cancers. By increasing the number of donors in the registry, patients have a higher chance of matching with someone. Although the chance of actually matching with a patient is less than 1%, you would be saving a life on the off chance that you do match. To find out more and to sign up to become a donor, visit www.dkms.org/en. We will be hosting this week-long event again in the spring, so come out to volunteer with us! Until next time, Helen Brrr!
Who doesn't love getting frostbite? For many of us, this was an exciting learning experience and for others it was like riding a bike. Nevertheless, I never tire of seeing MAPS members supporting and assisting each other on and off the ice! Stay warm everyone, Helen |
