*At the drive you will be given information about becoming a donor, fill out paperwork, go through a health questionnaire, and have a small vial of blood drawn so that tissue-typing can be performed.

Stephen Spriggs has been fighting Hodgkin’s Disease for the past three years and his only hope for long-term survival is to have a blood stem cell transplant. He has yet to find a donor, so we are asking for your help…

"Even if I do not find a match, it would make me and my family feel very good if someone was able to save another person’s life because of the situation that I am in. If you are chosen to be a donor for a stranger, you are giving someone else’s son, daughter, sister, brother, friend, etc, another chance at life. There is no greater gift imaginable." –Stephen Spriggs 9/24/03
