NMDP renamed "Be The Match"

7 April 2009

Effective this date, the National Marrow Donor Program will change the name of both their registries of bone marrow donors and banked cord blood to "Be The Match".  The new website BeTheMatch.org will direct readers to the original website www.marrow.org.  The name change is part of an on-going re-branding effort to reflect the fact that stem cell transplants are not just about bone marrow anymore.  The new name captures the spirit of donors who want to Be The Match for a patient in need.
