Ezer Mizion’s International Jewish Bone Marrow Registry:
Fourth Largest Registry in the World
Jews have rallied to assist their brethren who are suffering from cancer and whose only chance of survival is a bone marrow transplant. To ensure success, the donor and recipient must be a good genetic match, thus the need for a registry focusing on specific Jewish ethnicities. Compassionate Jews have registered in droves creating Ezer Mizion’s International Jewish Bone Marrow Registry, the fourth largest registry in the world!
