Description of Organization

“Since 1993, the Bone Marrow Donor Programme has been providing that often, last chance of survival to hundreds of patients su?ering from terminal blood-related diseases, in the form of a bone marrow transplant from an unrelated marrow donor.

BMDP manages Singapore’s only register of volunteer bone marrow donors and with a slim chance of ?nding that perfect matched donor, we are fully committed to building the local donor register into a national asset to help all Singaporeans have that second chance of life.

What we do at BMDP directly impacts life and death, hence our promise of “A donor for every patient”. We reach out to all sectors within our community to share the message and empower people with the choice to save a life.”

 

Intended use of funds through the YFC 2023 programme

“Generally for unassigned/undesignated donations –

Engaging and involving the YFC participants

BMDP will conduct physical meetings to let the volunteers understand what we do and what are our needs. These volunteers will be invited to join our events and activities to get a better insight to what we do. We will also be meeting up with the team regularly to ensure that they are on track and journey together with them.
