communication campaign to promote awareness of marrow donation, a

save lives. This campaign will spotlight the importance of marrow
donation and encourage voluntary registration through partnerships with
authorized Department of Defense affiliated organizations, such as
Salute to Life. These organizations are legally authorized to conduct
donor recruitment under 42 U.S.C. § 274k and Public Law 117-15. The Army
does not operate or fund these entities. Still, we are authorized to
