About the Author

Hello! We are so excited and thankful to be sharing all of our research and volunteer work with you. We are Shea Reed and Aneesa Williams, and we have worked diligently to ensure that we get the full experience with Be The Match. We hope you are able to walk away with more of an understanding of our objectives and what we have learned over the course of this service learning project.

Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement

Our objective was to earn a deeper understanding for what it means to be part of an organization as wide as Be The Match, and the way they incorporate their mission throughout their community. We attended multiple community service events and were able to see how the volunteers work to get individuals to join the bone marrow registry. Be The Match is a non-profit organization that specializes in connecting cancer patients with individuals who have donated bone marrow. Lives of all walks of life have been saved, it was beautiful to be part of such a special and unique experience of volunteerism.
