Gift of Life Marrow Registry is a national registry for volunteer donors of peripheral blood stem cells and bone marrow, used to cure patients worldwide who are battling blood cancers like leukemia and lymphoma, as well as diseases such as inherited immune disorders and sickle cell.
In addition to performing at Gift of Life Marrow RegistryÂ’s upcoming event, Ray has volunteered for the organization.
“I’m so honored and excited to be performing at the Gift of Life Marrow Registry Gala which supports patients with blood cancer finding bone marrow and blood stem cell donors,” said Ray. “I’ve been performing/working with organizations my entire life, and I find events like these to be very important and special. I also really enjoyed volunteering for The Gift of Life at one of their recruitment events helping to get new volunteer donors swabbed to find matches for patients!”
The One Huge Night Los Angeles Gala will also feature the introduction of a stem cell transplant recipient to the Gift of Life Marrow Registry donor who saved their life. Donors and recipients may not meet for the first year after transplant, so it will be an emotional and heartwarming moment.
