Hi all, I just wanted to reach out to let you know we’ve just passed 3,435 signatures on our petition! Thank you so much for your support!

We are currently searching for a stem cell donor match for sweet baby AJ who was recently diagnosed with a rare aggressive blood cancer. He urgently needs a stem cell transplant to survive. Because AJ is an only child and is of Filipino descent, his unrelated donor will most likely be Filipino. 

Filipinos are vastly underrepresented in the U.S. national Be the Match stem cell/marrow donor registry, comprising only .4% of all registered donors.

We encourage all between the ages of 18-44 to join the registry at aadp.org/homekit.

A cheek swab kit will be sent out with pre-paid postage to return for processing. The moment in time for a simple swab of a cheek can save a precious life. 

Will you please help me to get more support by sharing this post and petition with ten other people? If enough of us sign we can’t be ignored!
