Audio PSAs for radio

These high-quality downloadable PSAs for radio are made available by the NMDP and The Marrow Foundation®.

Note to the public
If you are holding a local marrow donor registration drive, you can ask your local radio stations to air these public service announcements and add the details for your event at the beginning or end. Allow at least three weeks' notice for a radio station to add a public service announcement to its on-air schedule.

Quincy Jones

It is important to recruit listeners from diverse ethnic and racial backgrounds to address the critical need to increase minority representation on the NMDP Registry. Barbara Rozier, mother of marrow recipient Monica Rozier, and music legend Quincy Jones team to create compelling public service announcements for urban format stations.
