How do I go about donating bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells?
Your ability to donate depends on several factors such as your blood type, tissue compatibility, and your general health. You can read about the assessment process here. In the case of related donation, you will also need to consider who else might be available to donate and how to decide who ultimately donates. If you are considering unrelated marrow donation, the process begins with registering with a bone marrow registry and completing a preliminary blood test. Read about volunteering here.
