Bristol Myers Squibb Saves Lives

We're joining together to raise money for Be The Match because we're passionate about saving lives!

Right now patients with life-threatening blood cancers and disorders need us more than ever.  Due to the ongoing pandemic, Be The Match has seen a staggering increase in the need for financial assistance, and in response, the number of grants given to patients and their families has increased 91%* over the prior year. For these patients, these funds are crucial to their transplant journey.

With your support we can help provide financial assistance to patients and their families as they overcome financial barriers before, during and after transplant.

Please help us reach our fundraising goal by making a tax-deductible contribution. Your gift delivers cures to patients desperate for a second chance at life. The money we raise will help add new potential blood stem cell donors to the registry, assist patients with uninsured transplant costs, and fund innovative research to improve transplant outcomes. Every dollar counts. 

Together, we can make a difference!
 



About Be The Match
Thousands of people are diagnosed every year with life-threatening blood cancers and diseases like leukemia and sickle cell. They depend on Be The Match and our supporters to find a match to save their life. As the global leader in blood stem cell transplantation, we connect the world’s largest and most diverse registry of donors with patients who are their genetic match. 30% of patients needing a transplant have a match within their family. The other 70% of patients turn to us for help.

Eliminating the health disparity
Patients are more likely to match with someone of their same ethnicity, which is why it is crucial to grow and diversify the Registry. Thousands of patients each year are still searching for their match. By fundraising and adding more people to the Registry, we can increase the odds and make sure every patient has an equal chance at finding their life-saving donor.

And if you are between the ages of 18 and 40, you can always join the Registry for free, potentially saving someone’s life. Visit https://my.bethematch.org/BMSSaves to join today!
