Anna and Michael's Wedding Fundraiser

Thank you for visiting this page! We have decided to create a fundraiser for Be The Match.

This year Anna's 8-year-old cousin, Ava, was diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia, a rare bone marrow failure syndrome, causing a compromised immune system and inability to produce blood cells. After many months of doctor visits, hospital stays, and blood transfusions, Ava received a successful bone marrow transplant on July 1 and is recovering well. 

Ava received her life-changing transplant due to her generous matched donor, found through Be The Match, a global leader in bone marrow transplantation. Be The Match connects patients with their donor match for a life-saving bone marrow transplant.

By contributing to this fundraiser, you can help other patients like Ava get connected to bone marrow donors, help with costs of transplant that aren't covered by insurance, and fund innovative research that improves transplant outcomes. Please also consider joining the bone marrow registry at Be The Match to be the cure for patients with blood disorders, blood cancers, immune system disorders and other diseases. 

Thank you!

Anna P. and Michael C.
