Making changes. Saving lives.

We are always talking about helping others, volunteering, leaving a better world for the new generation...But with our busy schedules, things can get in the way and we end up forgetting about all the good things we wanted to do to help others. But these people many times can't wait or be forgotten. I know there are millions of organization out there helping people in need and I chose two to talk about today. With a little help, we can truly make a difference in people's lives. I decided to write about two of them today and share them with you. I've seen their work and I know you will truly make a difference. Please share this post with anyone you think would benefit from it, either willing to help or looking for help.

The Icla da Silva Foundation- They recruit potential donors like YOU to become marrow bone donors and save a life.

The process is very easy. A simple swab of your cheeks and your DNA is there with your info, so they can add you to the registry and whenever a patient needs a donor, they will check if someone is a match.

It's not easy to find a match, but the more donors, the better the chances a patient has to survive. There is a huge number of children waiting for donors and I truly hope I can save someone's life one day.

You can check their website and get more information on how to get your buccal swab kit, check if they are having drives that day,get more info and learn more about how to donate and volunteer (donation keeps the organizations running and saving lives, and it's true: any help counts). You can also contact their websites to find out about other ways to help.
