Naama is four years old, and her family lives in a
small Israeli town in the north of the country. But
Naama doesn't live with them. She lives in a hospital
because she has leukemia. Her only chance of
returning to her family — and living a normal life —
is finding a matching bone marrow donor.

Ezer Mizion hopes to have 25,000 samples, and your
contribution will help cover the cost of these lab
expenses. You'll be helping Ezer Mizion come one step
closer to finding the donor who can give Naama and
many others like her, the best gift in the world —

Ezer Mizion, one of Israel's largest non-profit
organizations, is giving Naama that chance by
running a nation-wide bone marrow donor drive.
You, too, can be a part of this effort and help
save a Jewish child's life.

the gift of life.

Before Naama can know if a donor has been found,
each blood sample has to be sent to a lab in America
where the sample is tested and tissue-typed. These lab
expenses cost S65 per sample.
