Save Nina - A3M/Be the Match Typing Drive (Simple Cheek Swab Test) - Day 1
Nina Louie is a Manhattan Beach resident and she needs our help to spread the word about the bone marrow registry. A simple swab of the cheeks can potentially save a life. Nina has lymphoma which can be treated, however she has not found a match in the registry. Nina means everything to the people who know her, but she has less than one month to find a bone marrow match. She is married to the love of her life, and their two year old son, Donovan, utterly adores his mama. Nina has a smile that lights up a room and has a heart as big as Texas, where she grew up. The fastest way to help is to get typed at a local drive.
During the drive, all donors do is fill out a form and swab their cheeks. That’s it. If there is a perfect match with a patient the registry will contact donors directly. You must be 18-44 years old, meet health guidelines and be willing to donate to any patient in need. You can visit www.savenina.com

Sunday from 11am-3pm located inside the Manhattan Village Mall near the
