Now that I have your attention

I am in no way affiliated with this group. But, what would you want people to do if it were your child in need? If you can go, here is the facebook page that was made for the event: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=203592221223

Swabs for Julianna!!


When: Sunday, November 29, 2009
Time: 1pm-4pm
Where: Farmingville Fire Department
780 Horseblock Road
Farmingville, NY 11738

We ask everyone to bring a non-perishable or toiletry item to the event for local food pantries.

Julianna, pictured above, is a beautiful 6 year old little girl from Farmingville. She enjoys playing with her puppies, doing crafts and going camping. But most of all she loves playing with her best friend and identical twin, Jessica. Unlike Jessica, Julianna has leukemia and needs a bone marrow transplant to survive but there are currently NO matches for Julianna on the registry. Her family is asking you, their community, family and friends to please come to her drive to see if you can be Julianna’s life saving match.

PLEASE COME AND GET YOUR CHEEK SWABBED AND MAKE THE COMMITMENT TO SAVE A LIFE

No blood will be taken at the event. You must be between the ages of 18 and 55 to register, be in general good health and willing to donate to anyone.
