YEREVAN, AUGUST 7, ARMENRPESS. The number of people seeking to get
registered as donors in the Armenian Bone Marrow Donor Registry
(ABMDR) charity foundation grows each year. 25 thousand volunteers
from 18 countries of four continents were registered in the foundation
at the period of 14 years of its zealous activity. In a conversation
with “Armenpress” the Executive Director of the Armenian Bone Marrow
Donor Registry (ABMDR) Sevak Ayvazyan noted that the recorded growth
in closely connected with the continuous engagement in spreading
corresponding information and the activity of the youth. Recently
representatives of the Armenian communities of Georgia and the
Netherlands have also joined the Armenian Bone Marrow Donor Registry
(ABMDR).

Among other things the Executive Director of the Armenian Bone Marrow
Donor Registry (ABMDR) Sevak Ayvazyan stated that a number of public
and political figures along with popular singers joined the donors,
supporters, friends and champions of the organization. “They all
came together over the struggle against such a disaster as blood
cancer. The video message by prominent rock musician Serj Tankian has
also promoted the involvement of the youth in this program. Avraam
Russo, who always was proud of his Armenian origin, has also joined
his colleagues,” Ayvazyan stressed.

In addition Sevak Ayvazyan emphasized that the famous Kardashian
family, which recently had to face with malignant blood decease,
spares no effort to assist their compatriot.

The ABMDR was founded in 1999 as an independent, non-governmental,
not-for-profit organization, whose mission is to ensure that every
ethnic Armenian struck with a life threatening blood-related illness
is able to find hope for long-term survival.
