Penn State Hazleton’s Medical Laboratory Technology club will co-sponsor a bone marrow registry drive on Thursday, Oct. 20, in the upper lobby of the campus’ Butler Teaching and Learning Resource Center. At the registry drive, attendees can either collect and submit a simple cheek swab in person or have a kit mailed to them to complete on their own. Of particular need are potential donors ages 18 to 35 who are from diverse ethnic backgrounds, as a patient’s best chance of finding a donor may be with someone that shares their ethnic background, according to Be the Match.
