The donor drive starts at noon at the Stadioneck (Karl-Marx-Straße, corner of Bismarckstraße) and from 13.30 CET at the BayArena on the concourse in front of the D3/D4 stairs and on the piazza in the area VIP West. Registration as a new donor is offered free of charge. To cover the costs incurred by DKMS – the donor check normally costs €35 – collection boxes for reusable mugs will be used again for the home game against Gladbach where mugs can be deposited and the deposit used as a donation. The two euros deposit per mug will go directly to DKMS. The collecting containers will be distributed around the BayArena.
The motto with DKMS is "In with the swab, be a donor". And it's as easy as it sounds to do the testing. A sample is taken from the lining of the mouth with a cotton swab and then sent to the DKMS laboratory with a consent form. After registration, the results of the test are stored on the database and made available for the worldwide search for patients. Further information on stem cell donation is available at dkms.de.
