Donor match

Everyday approximately 6,000 patients who need life-saving marrow are searching for a donor match. For over 13 years the Vermont Wedding Association has partnered with Kerry Ellis and the Marrow Donor Program at Rutland Regional Medical Center donating a table at each of our bridal shows to welcome couples and their families to find a match. 

VWA is pleased to share that we have found a match at five of our shows and some have gone on to become donors!
