A bone marrow drive for James Christopher Allums, 21, and his sister Elizabeth, 3,

University of Louisiana Monroe Medical Laboratory Science faculty and students are
helping organize the drive. The drive on campus is 9 a.m.-5 p.m. in the SUB and Quad.
Melanie Chapman, assistant professor to the School of Health Professions, said, "This
is a wonderful opportunity for ULM Warhawks to fly high by working together and setting
aside our busy agendas to give two great kids, and possibly others, the chance to
live out their years. I am privileged to be a part of ULM and this community effort."
