## Resource

Five-year-old Jack Palms is fighting a rare blood disorder that caused a brain hemorrhage and stroke—his only hope is a bone marrow transplant from a matched donor. Despite the odds, Jack’s showing incredible strength, even standing unassisted for seconds this week. Communities across Rhode Island are rallying, with donor events and athletes stepping up to help. If you’re a match, the donation is a simple, safe procedure. Register at a Saturday event in North Kingstown or get a free cheek swab kit to join the registry—your swab could be the hero Jack needs.
