ABOUT THE ACLU

The ACLU protects American values by conserving America’s original civic values – the Constitution and the Bill of Rights – and by defending the rights of every man, woman, and child in this country. The ACLU believes that every person in this country– Rich or poor, straight or gay, black or white or brown, urban or rural, pious or atheist, American-born or foreign-born, able-bodied or living with a disability– should have the same basic rights. And since their founding in 1920, they’ve been working hard to make sure no one takes them away.

VOLUNTEER: Join the NMDP Donor Registry to Help Those with Blood Diseases!

This month, use your power by joining the NMDP Donor Registry! Become a potential lifesaver to patients battling blood cancers or other blood diseases who need a blood stem cell donor.

Every year, 18,000 patients are diagnosed with life-threatening blood cancers or other blood disorders that could be cured or treated with a blood stem cell transplant. But 70% of them don’t have a fully matched donor in their family. They depend on NMDP℠ to find an unrelated donor. That life-saving donor could be you!

GET STARTED HERE!
