THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

US ESTIMATES – 2009

New cases:44,790

Deaths: 21,870

Mortality: 49%

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

For many patients, the only cure is a bone marrow transplant, from a human donor.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

FINDING A DONOR

Marrow infusions require a near perfect genetic match (10/10).

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

The highest probability lies in the same ethnic pool.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Non-profit that operates a bone marrow registry of 7.5 million individuals.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

For European Americans, there is an 80% chance of finding a matched donor in the NMDP Registry.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Of the 7.5 MILLION registrants in the U.S.,

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

20% are minorities.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

But only 1% are South Asian.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

So if you are South Asian…

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

your chances of finding a match are slim.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

V E R Y S L I M

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

1 in 20,000

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Sameer and Vinay did not find matches that they desperately needed in the registry.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

To make matters worse,

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

in India…

a country with more than 1 billion people

There was noNational Bone Marrow Registry

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

What to do?

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Friends got together.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

We all knew that we needed to do something.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

What were our options?

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Do nothing.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Do nothing.Do something.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Do nothing.Do something.

Do something SEISMIC.

THE CHALLENGE

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

THE CHALLENGEWe needed to move fast.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

THE CHALLENGEWe needed to move fast.We needed to scale.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

THE CHALLENGEWe needed to move fast.We needed to scale.We could not fail.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Our simple answer…

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

If the odds were 1 in 20,000…

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Then all we needed to do was…

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

hold bone marrow drives…

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

and register 20,000 South Asians.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

And then we’ll find a match.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

Just 1 problem.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

We had a matter of weeks to get this done.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

First stay focused.

THE DRAGONFLY EFFECT

One goal:

20,000 South Asians

Dear Friends, Please take a moment to read this e-mail. My friend, Sameer Bhatia, has been diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML), which is a cancer of the blood. He is in urgent need of a bone marrow transplant. Sameer is a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, is 31 years old, and got married last year. His diagnosis was confirmed just weeks ago and caught us all by surprise given that he has always been in peak condition. Sameer, a Stanford alum, is known to many for his efforts in launching the American India Foundation, Project DOSTI, TiE (Chicago), a microfinance fund, and other causes focused on helping others. Now he urgently needs our help in giving him a new lease on life. He is undergoing chemotherapy at present but needs a bone marrow transplant to sustain beyond the next few months. Fortunately, you can help. Let’s use the power of the Net to save a life…something that couldn’t be done years ago, but is now possible. Three Things You Can Do (click here for more details online) 1. Please get registered.Getting registered is quick and requires a simple cheek swab (2 minutes of your time) and filling out some forms (5 minutes of your time). Registering and even donating if you’re ever selected is VERY simple. Another friend of ours, Vinay, was also diagnosed with AML and requires a transplant. We have joined forces with Team Vinay (www.helpvinay.org) in order to get South Asians registered in the bone marrow registry. Both Sameer and Vinay need a match from another South Asian, however, very few South Asians are actually in the registry and this makes it difficult for doctors to find them a match. This is why we need your help. We are supporting Team Vinay in organizing drives nationwide, and I need you to get registered by visiting a local drive. Drives are currently taking place all around the country, including throughout California, Washington, Michigan, Illinois, New York and many other states. Please see the full list of locations here: http://www.helpvinay.org/dp/index.php?q=event. 2. Spread the word.Please share this e-mail message with at least 10 people (particularly South Asians), and ask them to do the same. Please point your friends to the local drives and ask them to get registered. If you can, sponsor a drive at your company or in your community. Drives need to take place in the next 2-3 weeks to be of help to Sameer and Vinay.  Please use the power of your address book and the Web to spread this message – today more than ever before, we can achieve broad scale and be part of a large online movement to save lives.  3. Learn moreTo learn more, please visit http://www.nickmyers.com/helpsameer. The site includes more details on how to organize your own drive, valuable information about AML, plus FAQs on registering. Please visit http://www.helpvinay.org/dp/index.php?q=node/108 for more information on the cities where more help is needed. Another past success story from our community is that of Pia Awal’s; please read about her successful fight against AML at www.matchpia.org.  Thank you for getting registered to help Sameer and Vinay win their fight against leukemia – and for helping others who may face blood cancers in the future. Truly, Robert

And design for network effects.

Yes.

Starting with one small email.

Dear Haas students

Would you like to make a dent in cancer?

Here’s how. First, join us at the Haas Center – we are students who seek to harness social media to get 100,000 people into the bone marrow registry. Just email us your vitae and your background to tell us you are interested. Three Other Things You Can Do (click here for more details online) 1. Please get registered.Getting registered is quick and requires a simple cheek swab (2 minutes of your time) and filling out some forms (5 minutes of your time).
