Project Description

the problem:

Student leaders initiated this project with the aim of raising awareness for bone marrow donations as there is a dearth of potential donors on the registry and half of local patients with blood diseases receive foreign donations. The student leaders also had the objective of making the bone marrow donation process more understandable and accessible to students aged 18. As these students would have just qualified for donation, the registry of healthy donors can be expanded. By enabling potential blood marrow donors with such relevant information, they can be empowered to donate their bone marrow to critically ill patients with blood diseases.

what we want to achieve:

Our goal is to raise awareness and increase the ease of understanding the bone marrow donation process. A larger audience will allow us to propagate our message to more people, eliminating common misconceptions about marrow donation.
