SUMMARY:Be The Match!
DESCRIPTION:The Pro Bono Organization and Be The Match will be hosting a registry event in Amber Takesh’s honor on February 7 and 8 from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. All that is required is a simple cheek swab! Be the Match has requested around 5 volunteers per hour\, but the more\, the merrier! There will be a brief training Zoom a few days before the event that will be 20-35 minutes\, where the coordinators will discuss what the volunteers will be doing and saying the day of. \nFrom fellow classmate and 2L Jamie Shaw: “My best friend\, Amber Takesh\, was diagnosed with AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia) in March 2021 and Amber lost her battle with AML on October 6\, 2022. Be The Match is a national Blood Stem Cell and Bone Marrow registry that saves lives daily. Amber had found a match through Be The Match before her relapse and continued to advocate for the registry until her passing.” \nIf you would like to volunteer at this event\, please use the link to sign up! – This opportunity is eligible for pro bono hours. \nEven if you do not volunteer\, stop by the tables on your lunch break on Feb. 7 or 8 to do a quick swab and potentially save a life!
