My Nonprofit Reviews

After being selected as a potential match for a patient in need of a bone marrow transplant, I knew I wanted to find a way to make a difference in the lives of others who are in need of a donor. Fortunately, I became connected to Gift of Life’s Campus Ambassador Program, where I can collaborate with other students and organizations at Brown University and the surrounding Providence community to play an active part in expanding the National Bone Marrow Registry. Gift of Life’s recruitment team has been incredibly supportive these past two semesters, connecting me to experienced mentors who have served as an excellent guide for the transition to virtual donor recruitment. On top of this, Gift of Life’s mission to expand the diversity of the registry solidifies my commitment to this wonderful organization, where I can now play a tangible role in reducing healthcare disparities for underrepresented minorities in the US and across the world. Although my donation ended up falling through, I am so thankful to have started my journey with Gift of Life, and I can’t wait to see how many lives can be helped over my next two years as a Campus Ambassador.
