Holden is 10.
He loves baseball and wrestling and superheroes. Duh.
And Holden has leukemia.
Even superheroes need their fellow superheroes to help them out from time to time, and this is one of those times. Holden needs a bone marrow transplant.
Some good news: Holden does have a potential donor who has stepped up. However, if this donor is not a match, he will need to find another potential donor.
Are you that hero?
Even if you don’t match Holden, you could possibly save another person’s life.
Right now, about 7500 Americans are actively searching for a bone marrow donor. To become Holden’s hero or a hero to someone like him, the first step is to visit bethematch.org to find out more information and to register online.
Registering for bone marrow donation is easy and only requires a cheek swab!
