For blood cancer patients the search for a donor is a fight against the odds. Each connection is a miracle. Our annual gala is a celebration of the strides we’ve made in saving more lives—and an inspiring call to further our efforts to delete blood cancer.
Hosted by celebrity design expert Nate Berkus and chaired by COTY Inc. CEO Michele Scannavini, the evening will honor Leighton Meester & Vera Wang, and Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, Co-Founder, Artistic Director and EVP, OPI Products Inc. for their commitment to our cause and include a miracle first-time meeting between a donor and patient. The night will feature a special musical performance by the Grammy Award-winning artist Lady Antebellum and Jill Scott.
About Us
Delete Blood Cancer DKMS started with one family’s search for a bone marrow donor and is today part of the world’s largest bone marrow donor center. We have helped register more than 3.5 million potential donors and facilitated over 35,000 life-saving transplants around the world. But we’re not stopping there. Every day we lead the fight against blood cancer by working with families, communities and organizations to recruit more donors and provide more patients with second chances at life.
