Marrow Donor Registry Drive For Mason Morash- La Costa Heights Elementary

 In December, MASON MORASH, a 2nd Grader at La Costa Heights Elementary, was diagnosed with Aplastic Anemia. This is a disease in which the bone marrow is damaged causing a deficiency of all three blood cell types. For Mason and many others, the only hope for a cure is a bone marrow transplant. Make today the day you save lives, such as Mason’s, through bone marrow donation! 

The bone marrow drive is for ages 18-44 and is being held at La Costa Heights Elementary -3035 Levante St. , Carlsbad, CA 92009
