“There’s nothing bigger than life – not when someone you love is fighting to live,” O’Neal said. “That’s why I’m letting people know they have the power to save a life by joining the Be The Match Registry®.”
For thousands of people battling leukemia, lymphoma, sickle cell disease and other life-threatening diseases, a bone marrow transplant offers their best – or only – hope for a cure. Seventy percent of these patients don’t have a matching donor in their families, so they depend on the Be The Match Registry, the world’s largest and most diverse listing of potential marrow donors, to find that life-saving match.

Kids Beating Cancer Pediatric Marrow Transplant Program at Disney Pavilion Florida Hospital for Children
Expanding Pediatric Transplantation at the world-class center of excellence, Disney Pavilion Florida Hospital for Children in Orlando.
Every year, thousands of children get cancer, leukemia and other life-threatening diseases. Many of them will die unless they get a bone marrow or cord blood transplant from a genetically matched donor. Some people find a match in their family, but 70% do not. These patients depend on Kids Beating Cancer to help them find an unrelated compatible donor. Kids Beating Cancer's vision is to provide critical life-saving and life-enhancing services for children with cancer, leukemia, and other life-threatening diseases, and to see that those children whose survival depends on receiving a marrow or blood stem cell transplant, have the maximum opportunity for a cure.
“If we’re persistent enough, we can do the dreams.”
