Help the DKMS to save lives!

Created by WackenTom

Dear Metalheads, 

As you probably know, we have been joining forces with the DKMS in their fight against blood cancer for quite some time now. Your support for this project sas simply fantastic, thousands and thousands of you have already been registered as potential stem cell donors. At the Wacken Open Air alone, there were over 10,000 registrations, so far we have been able to help and save lives 45 times. 

Currently, however, this number is decreasing because the DKMS is not able to promote the good cause and find further potential stem cell donors at festivals, city fairs or similar events. 

Currently we have another case in our surroundings, the nine-year-old Marlene has blood cancer for the second time. 

In order to be able to support patients like Marlene on their search for a potential  donor, the DKMS offers now the possibility of an on-line registration. Go to www.dkms.de/marlene and order your registration set.

More information can be found at www.dkms.de/en, this is where you can also donate some money if you want to support the DKMS and their important work.. 

Thanks for your support, 

The whole W:O:A team
