LOS ANGELES—On June 5, the Armenian Bone Marrow Donor Registry held a major recruitment at the Yerevan headquarters of PicsArt Armenia. The event, which was organized within the framework of the #PicsArtCitizen program, drew the enthusiastic support of PicsArt’s Yerevan team, with 72 young men and women joining the ranks of ABMDR as potential bone marrow stem cell donors.
A team from ABMDR’s Yerevan Lab, led by Dr. Mihran Nazaretyan, the registry’s medical director, was on hand to answer questions and collect a very small blood sample from each volunteer, as part of the recruitment process.
PicsArt is behind the global phenomenon of the PicsArt App, which lets users edit photos and videos, and create drawings, paintings, and collages on their smartphones. #PicsArtCitizen is the company’s initiative to encourage its employees to be engaged in civic activism and become involved in worthy causes.
