Becoming a bone marrow donor starts with a quick swab of the cheek at a local drive.

People ages 18-44 can become bone marrow donors by joining the registry – https://bethematch.org/support-the-cause/

You can find out more about local drives in Rhode Island by checking the Rhode Island Blood Center – http://www.ribc.org/ways-to-give/donate-marrow

Coming up tonight on ABC6 News at 6 and 11 we’ll have the story of a local baby in need of a bone marrow transplant.
