GLENDALE, Calif. (KABC) — Hundreds of people gathered in Glendale
over the weekend for the sixth annual Walk of Life.

The event was held Saturday and was hosted by the Armenian Bone Marrow
Donor Registry.

Organizers said it is particularly difficult to find genetic matches
for patients of Armenian descent.

The walk was dedicated to 10 patients in Los Angeles hoping to find
donors soon.
