CCRstudies in conjunction with CorePlus FICU held a bone marrow donor drive during the holiday season. The event served to raise awareness in regards to the importance of bone marrow donation for those critically ill with cancers of the blood. Individuals ages 18 to 44 were eligible to register for the National Bone Marrow Donor Registry through a simple cheek swab at the event. The bone marrow donor drive was held at the Groton branch of CorePlus located on Route 12. To learn more about bone marrow donation, visit www.bethematch.org or visit www.CCRstudies.com.
