Description

The Aggies Cure Drive will provide an opportunity for students, faculty, staff, and community members to potentially save lives by getting swabbed to determine if they are a match for someone battling blood cancer. Each swab kit processed at the event will register one individual as a potential life-saving donor for a patient desperately in need.

Here's how you can participate and make a difference:

  1. Get Swabbed: Visit our event to provide a simple swab sample. Your willingness to be tested could mean the world to someone in need of a bone marrow transplant.
  2. Donate: In addition to getting swabbed, you can also contribute financially to cover the lab costs associated with processing swab kits. Every $60 donated will cover the expenses for one swab kit, enabling us to register more potential donors and increase the chances of finding matches for patients.

Event Details:

  • Date: May 2nd, 2024
  • Time: 10am-3pm
  • Location: Aggie Lounge at Corbett Center Student Union

Your support can truly change lives. By participating in the Aggies Cure Drive, you have the opportunity to be a source of hope for individuals fighting blood cancer.

We encourage you to spread the word and invite friends, family, and colleagues to join us in this important initiative. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those battling this devastating disease.
