At The Icla da Silva Foundation, we hold over 2,000 bone marrow drives every year.  Our staff educates people about how easy it is to save a life by joining the Be The Match Registry, and what it entails to sing up as a bone marrow donor. 

By holding marrow drives in schools, universities, churches and different organizations across the country, we teach communities the steps of marrow and Peripheral Blood Stem Cell (PBSC) Donation. We want to make sure those who Join the Registry will be willing to make a donation in case they are a match to a patient in need.

As patients with a racially diverse background face a greater challenge in finding a donor, we work closely with the Hispanic, Asian, African and Native American communities to raise awareness about the need for a more diverse registry. With a multicultural staff and a large network of volunteers and organizations, we tailor campaigns and educational programs according to the need of each community.
