During African American Bone Marrow Awareness Month 10-Year-Old Texas Boy Makes Appeal for More Blood Stem Cell and Marrow Donors
MJ Dixon is battling leukemia and has been searching for a match for the past year
July is African American Bone Marrow Awareness Month, and Be The Match is working to raise awareness of a health disparity on the national blood stem cell and marrow registry that affects Black and African American patients in need of life-saving cell therapies. Patients battling blood cancers such as leukemia or blood diseases like sickle cell disease are most likely to find a matching donor in someone who shares their heritage or ethnicity.

Black patients find matching donors 29% of the time compared to a 79% chance for white patients.
