Thank you for visiting our 14th Annual March for Marrow Raffle! As Texas patients and family members we are create these Patient, Family & Community event in Texas on behalf of the Aplastic Anemia MDS International Foundation, Inc. (AAMDSIF), www.AAMDS.org.
As in the past, our purpose as Texas patients and families who have received life-giving support from AAMDSIF is fourfold:
1. Expand awareness of bone marrow failure diseases.
2. Create a support community among patients, families, and medical professionals in Texas.
3. Raise funds for AAMDSIF’s free programs and services that have benefited all of us.
4. Recruit potential marrow donor candidates through Be the Match.
5. Increase awareness of the premier doctors, nurses, and medical services for bone marrow failure disease support in Houston and in Texas.
This past April we raised $40,000 through team fundraising, local sponsorships and national sponsors! Over 225 runners and walkers including patients, friends, family members and area residents, ran or walked with us. Our goals for March for Marrow 2023 are to raise $45,000 with which to serve even more patients, and to recruit 20 potential donors for National Marrow Donor Program – Be the Match. These are goals we can meet and we hope to exceed!
