Get Swabbed For Ezra At The Yeshiva University Homecoming

Aug. 16, 2011 - PRLog -- Ezra, son of Evan Fineman ‘01 Sy Syms School of Business, is 2 years old and loves the alphabet, music and his tricycle.  Ezra has a rare primary immune deficiency disorder called Hyper IgM Syndrome and is in need of a bone marrow transplant to survive. Since tissue type is inherited, Ezra’s best chance of finding a genetically matched donor lies with those of Jewish ancestry, however, there are many patients of all backgrounds in need of donors for transplants, so we encourage everyone to join the registry.

Time - 11:00 am to 2:00 pm
