Bone Marrow Drive Set For April 13
Students in Allen High School’s Peer Assistance and Leadership (PALS) and Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA) groups are hosting a drive to find a bone marrow match for Marion Elementary fifth grader, Jack Armentrout, and others like him on Friday, April 13, from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. The drive will be held in the Commons area of the Performance Arts Center.
“Be The Match”, the national marrow donor program, is seeking individuals between the ages of 18 and 60 who are in good health and willing to donate to anyone who is a match.
For more information or to make a donation to “Be The Match”, visit the Web site at www.bethematchfoundation.org/goto/allenhighschool.
If you are age 18 to 44, but can’t attend the drive, you can have a cheek swabbing kit mailed to your home by going to this link: http://marrow.org/Join/Join_Now/Join_No w.aspx.
For more information on the Allen High School drive, contact Jennifer Atencio at jennifer_atencio@allenisd .org or at 972.727.0400 ext. 5236.
