误以为
- 骨髓取自脊柱或手臂。
- 捐贈很痛苦，恢復時間很長。
- 我不能獻血，所以我不能捐獻骨髓/幹細胞。
事實
- 骨髓取自髖骨，絕不從脊柱或手臂取出！
- 捐贈大部分時間都與血漿捐贈類似，而且你在同一天回家！
- 獻血要求不同於骨髓/幹細胞的要求。
匹配註冊站是全球規模最大，最多樣化的。

About Laugh for Lives:
An old saying goes, “Laughter is the best medicine” and we certainly believe that humor is a strong medicine for the mind and body. Laugh for Lives is a comedy show benefiting Asian American Donor Program (AADP). Our primary goal of the event is not only to provide a stellar line-up of comedians for an evening of much-needed laughs but to elevate the awareness of our mission, helping save lives of patients with leukemia, lymphoma and other blood diseases. The evening is designed to educate and encourage individuals between the ages of 18-44 years old, who are from ethnic minority communities to register as a potential bone marrow donor. Laugh For Lives is an AADP volunteer’s idea to help bring more attention about the need for donors to individuals from diverse communities.
