Student Nurses’ Association’s Bone Marrow Drive Registers 60 New Donors

On Thursday, October 30, 2014, Student Nurses’ Association (SNA), a student-led leadership non-profit organization registered with UH Manoa, held a Bone Marrow Donor Registration Drive at Campus Center. SNA partnered with the Delete Blood Cancer organization that provided the supplies necessary to hold a successful drive.  The registration process was fairly simple, and interested participants filled out a registration/consent form and then swabbed the inside of each of their cheeks for 30 seconds.
