Dear Iranian Brothers, Sisters, and Friends,
“WHO SAVES A LIFE, SAVES THE WORLD”
Kayvan Nabatian is a 30 years young who is courageously battling Leukemia.
Kayvan is being treated at Sloan Memorial Hospital in New York City and he is in need of a bone marrow match. Few months ago Kayvan received bone marrow from his sister, but it did not work. His doctors say that only a non family match will work. Because ethnicity and race play a big role in finding a match, Kayvan is asking you to help him and save his life by taking a simple cotton swab of cheek test. With your help, Kayvan’s life and other Iranian brothers and sisters that are waiting for a bone marrow match will be saved.
The testing routine is very easy. All it takes is filling out a form and sweeping a cotton swab in your mouth saliva or cheek cells.        If you are in overall good health and between the age of 18 -60 years, you can do one of the following as soon as possible:
