Who We Are
Giving HOPE to Patients and Families in need!!
Who is BAHBAD you ask?? It is the Be A Hero, Become A Donor Foundation dedicated to “giving HOPE to patients and families in need”. Our goal is to educate and raise awareness to the need for individuals to donate blood on a regular basis, consider publicly banking their baby’s cord blood, and to join the Marrow and Donate Life Registries. We learned through our son Evan’s journey that without donors we had NO HOPE, and we want everyone to have HOPE. We also offer support to families who are fighting and those that have lost the fight, by bringing like-minded families together, offering assistance with their every need, and supporting organizations like ours that will make our world a better place.

Evan's Story
Help us save lives in honor of Evan Cousineau by joining the registry and/or making a donation to help fund these drives.

Online Marrow Donor Drive
Online "Be The Match" Registry Donor Drive: Now thru May 31st, 2009
Please join us in honoring Evan.  You can join the National Marrow Donor Program's "Be the Match" registry by going to the NMDP Website.  Follow the instructions for joining the registry and when prompted enter this promo code: "bah0509"
We are asking you contribute at least $25.00 towards the tissue typing fee of $52.00.  Remember that any money not paid toward the $52 fee is coming from the "Be A Hero Become A Donor Foundation".  While we are here to assist with the tissue typing cost, if you can afford the fee, please pay it so we have money to fund those who are committed but do not have the means to pay.
