Contact Name: Nicki
Mailing/Business Address: Seattle, WA
Phone No: 206 622-7101 Email: nicki@mavinfoundationorg
Event: Main Event: Forums, Workshop, Kickoff Role: Participant
Description: Providing informational materials for the Health Fair
Background/Years of Experience
Bio: MatchMaker is the only national program dedicated to mixed
race bone
marrow donor recruitment and education This year, 30,000 people will
be diagnosed with diseases that are treatable with a marrow or blood
stem cell transplant People are most likely to find a marrow match
with someone of the same racial or ethnic background Of those
registered with the National Marrow Donor Program Registry, only 25
are racial minorities, with mixed race people representing a mere 2
By diversifying the pool of potential donors, MatchMaker is working to
make sure that all individuals, regardless of their heritage have a
better chance at finding a life-saving match
Founded in 2001 by MAVIN interns Justin Nieman and Yazmine Tarhouni
MatchMaker works with local donor centers, recruitment groups and the
National Marrow Donor Program to address the chronic shortage of
multiracial donors on the NMDP In states like California and
Washington, more multiracial babies are born than any other race
except
Caucasians, yet our society lacks awareness about the unique health
issues facing multiracial children Specifically, multiracial people
have great difficulty finding marrow or
blood stem cell matches to
cure potentially fatal diseases like leukemia
MatchMaker is an innovative, award-winning program For our unique
approach to health issues, MatchMaker received the 2002 Heroes of
Health Care Award for Innovation from the Washington Health
Foundation And thanks to the efforts of MatchMaker and our partners,
Washington Governor Gary Locke signed an executive order to mandate
paid leave for all state employees who donate blood, marrow or organs
