March for Marrow Los Angeles 2019

The 10th annual Los Angeles March for Marrow was successful in all respects, bringing together patients, supporters, and volunteers, raising awareness, gathering signups for Be The Match, and fundraising for the Aplastic Anemia & MDS International Foundation.

Fundraising teams and individuals raised nearly $20,000 (including a new record of over $2,200 for Team Marrowforums). The silent auction raised over $3,200. We'll announce the event total, with registrations and other donations, when the results are in.

This year's featured champion was PNH patient Camilla Ricci. Watch her interview on ABC news.
