Link Donating Life

To increase the number of registrations, several Asian American organizations have worked together to raise awareness of the importance of signing up for the bone marrow registry.

Lambda Phi Epsilon (LPE) has been working with the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) as part of their national philanthropy since 1995, the year when one of the fraternity brothers, Evan Chen, was diagnosed with leukemia.

The Theta Chapter at Stanford University organized a joint effort to help Chen find a bone marrow donor and, in a matter of days, over 2,000 people were typed. A match was eventually found for Evan, but unfortunately by that time, the disease had taken its toll on him and he passed away in 1996.

According to UW LPE brother Benny Tran, 136 people signed up for the bone marrow registry through their drive last year, with an average of 70 to over 100 registering at their drive annually.

Dragon Fest is one of many Chinatown festivals that happen during the month of July where many vendors and entertainers of numerous Asian cultures are able to unite and sell their craft. Supporting this consumer celebration is one of Alpha Zeta’s many summer projects. Since many Greek houses take summer off, Lambda Phi Epsilon was the only UW Greek organization active at Dragon Fest this year. Our brothers and Little Sisters arrived early to help set up the market and were active in obtaining festival goer surveys during the duration of the festivities to ensure that everyone was getting the most out of their Dragon Fest experience. At the end of the day, the brothers and Little Sisters stayed back late to help take down the stands and clean up the streets of Chinatown which they adopted through the Seattle Rent-A-Street program.
