Be the Match
Learn More or Join
We’re doing something epic—something that really matters. Every 4 minutes, someone is diagnosed with a life-threatening disease like leukemia, lymphoma, or sickle cell anemia. For thousands of these patients, the only chance for a cure is a bone marrow transplant from someone outside their family. Be The Match® is a nonprofit organization of donors, volunteers, researchers and health care professionals that delivers cures for blood cancers. The University of Southern Indiana is joining universities across the nation and taking part in this extraordinary, life-saving work.
Be The Match at the University of Southern Indiana is a student organization dedicated to giving students and the surrounding community the opportunity to join the bone marrow registry, give their financial support, and volunteer their time. We’re working hard to add young, diverse, committed potential marrow donors to the Be The Match Registry and to raise funds that save lives.
