Friendship Friday!: Help a Friend in Need

BFF Fans, consider this your official call to action!






Meet Shannon Tavarez. She is only eleven years old, but has already experienced more in her short life than many experience in a lifetime. She has a budding career as a Broadway actress- you may have seen her perform as young Nala in Disney's The Lion King. However, Shannon's career was put on hold when she was diagnosed with leukemia a few months ago. Now she is braving daily doses of chemotherapy and needs a bone marrow transplant.

Shannon is looking for a BFF who could save her life- she needs a donor with an exact bone marrow match. A simple mouth swab test is all that is needed to determine if someone is a match. Learn more about how to become a bone marrow donor here.

Please spread the word... Shannon is looking for a BFF that can save her life!
