    Aaron and Kate Bender have spent nearly 2 years raising awareness about GATA2 mutations, and fundraising for IVF with PGD. Their hope is to prevent Aaron's rare genetic disorder from passing down to their children.

    This video was created to help spread awareness about GATA2 mutations and the BeTheMatch Bone Marrow Registry. It also contains information for those who would like to contribute to the Bender's fundraising goals.

    Aaron and Kate want to bring some baby Badger fans into the world!
