From the Connecticut Post:

To aid Lemos — and others in need of a transplant — the Vasco da Gama Portuguese Cultural & Civic Center, 355 James St., Bridgeport will host a bone marrow donor registration from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday.

From the Connecticut Post:

Forget blood drives. Joseph A. Foran High School's Interact Club is going deeper with an effort to get bone marrow donors.

The club will sponsor the marrow drive from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the Masonic Hall, 59 Broad St., in affiliation with the National Marrow Donor Program. Interact President Paul Wydra III, a senior at Foran, said it normally costs $60 per person to join the registry, but a special "Thanks Mom" promotion during the month of May means it's free.

I just found out about a drive at University of Connecticut that started on Wednesday. From the Daily Campus:

There will be a blood drive hosted by the Red Cross and a bone marrow drive hosted by the organization Save Giovanni's Friends in the North Reading Room of Wilbur Cross this week from today until Friday, starting at 11 a.m. and lasting until 4:30 p.m. each day.

An e-mail from my aunt about a bone marrow drive at Long Island University's Brooklyn campus led me to a great find: the Icla da Silva Foundation's calendar of bone marrow drives, currently listed through to June 22. This is as good a time as any to mention that we will soon have a calendar on the site to make it easy for people to look up drives and their details.
