Maddy

"After I donated it felt more real. This was someone real that I was able to help in a tremendous way ... being a part of HOSA and NMDP has truly been life changing."

Andrew

"Donating was an incredibly smooth and humbling experience. ... When I found out I was a match, saying 'yes' was the easiest decision I've ever made. Knowing that a few hours of my time could potentially give someone a second chance at life is a feeling that's hard to put into words. It truly embodies what we strive for in ΣAE—living as True Gentlemen and serving others.”

Featured partners

Delta Epsilon Mu

Since 2021, NMDP and Delta Epsilon Mu (DEM)—the nation's premier pre-health fraternity—have partnered to save lives. Spanning fields like medicine, nursing, and dentistry, DEM members use their expertise and enthusiasm to educate peers on the donation process.

Their high-energy recruitment efforts have already resulted in 5,200+ new registrations and 10+ life-saving donations.

FarmHouse Fraternity

The FarmHouse International Executive Board officially adopted NMDP as their philanthropy at FarmHouse’s Conclave in 2008.

Approximately 9,500 registry members can be directly attributed to FarmHouse’s recruitment efforts, which has resulted in 88 blood stem cell donations for patients in need.

Looking further back, Robert Graves, D.V.M., a member of the Colorado State FarmHouse chapter of 1953, played a key role in establishing a national registry of volunteers for bone marrow donation.

Alpha Phi Alpha

As the first intercollegiate Greek-letter fraternity for African American men, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. has been a life-saving partner of NMDP since 2021. This collaboration focuses on addressing health disparities and increasing registry representation for patients fighting blood cancers and sickle cell disease.

Alpha Phi Alpha members have added approximately 2,032 registrants to the NMDP Registry^SM, resulting in 6 donors and 7 life-saving donations.
