August 16, 2006

Thank to everyone for making our Long Island Bone Marrow drive an incredible success - with only 5 days to plan, promote, and prepare, 288 donors registered in 4 hours! The test kits are winging their way back to the Gift of Life Bone Marrow Foundation where they will be processed and entered into the database to be matched against Lindsey and the hundreds of others who are searching for a donor. Special thanks to Congregation Beth Torah, Newsday, and all of the volunteers who worked so efficiently and professionally!

The Bar Night after the drive was a huge success as well, raising over $6,000 for the Gift of Life Foundation, earmarked for testing on Lindsey's behalf.

Many, many thanks to everyone for your help and support,
The Brass Family
