Hendrick Marrow Program

Rick Hendrick, chairman and CEO of Hendrick Motorsports, established the Hendrick Marrow Program in 1997 after he was diagnosed with leukemia. Even though he did not need a marrow transplant himself, he wanted to help other patients waiting to find a marrow match and a second chance at life.

The Hendrick Marrow Program works with Be The Match Foundation to support the work of the National Marrow Donor Program. It raises money to add more potential marrow donors to the Be The Match Registry, increasing the chances that more patients find their match. It also helps patients pay for some uninsured transplant costs, which are often a barrier to treatment.

You can help by donating at anytime, or by participating in upcoming events.  Be The Match Walk+Run in Charlotte, NC on September 28, 2013.
