Dear AUSD Community,
As you may recall, one of our kindergarten students at Marin Elementary School is battling a severe, rare disease that threatens his life. He has been diagnosed with Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma and urgently needs your help to find his lifesaving marrow.
Another bone marrow drive will be held on Saturday October 19th from 11:00am-3:00pm at Ocean View Elementary (1000 Jackson St Albany, CA) during the Fall festival.
Due to the timeline for this child’s treatment, this will likely be the last drive done in Albany.
Please come out and get a painless cheek swab to see if you are match; it takes 5 minutes and you could save a life. Ages 18-44 years old please.
If you have already been tested, please pass along the information to your family and friends.
Hope to see you there!
