WELCOME TO GUARDIAN ANGEL COUNCIL

Our mission is to educate and improve the welfare of disadvantaged populations in the community.

This is accomplished with our three programs. The first program is our Book for Book® Program that increases the early childhood literacy rate across the nation. There is only 1 book for every 300 children who live in low-income communities. We have partnered with Young Series™ publisher to distribute bilingual children books. Our goal is to provide 1 book for every child in America.

A second program is our We Run Mesa™ Program. This program is in partnership with Mesa Public Schools who provide the venue and with support from Mesa Police Department and Mesa Fire who assist by running with the youth who participate in the program.Many of the We Run Mesa youth participants come from low-income households and reside in the surrounding neighborhoods.

The third program is being a recruitment organization for Be the Match. We coordinate events to increase the counts of minorities in the Be the Match Registry®. Be the Match Registry is operated by the National Marrow Donor Program®, Every day, there are thousands of patients with leukemia and other life-threatening diseases hoping to get the marrow or cord blood transplant that can save their lives. You have the power to save a life!

BOOK FOR BOOK® PROGRAM

Recognizing the gap between literacy rates with low-income children and middle-income children in communities across the nation, Guardian Angel Council saw the need to provide books to children in need. This will guide the future of not only our children, but for the impact that they will have by contributing to society as a collective group.

For every book that is purchased our partnership with the Young Series™ publisher, we will donate a book to a child in need.

It not only promotes exercise and the sport of running, but also good citizenship through the various special guests who attend.You never know when the Mayor, Chief of Police, Fire Chief, Local Business Owner’s, or even Professional Sports Players may pop-in to run with the kids.

This program is in partnership with Mesa Public Schools, City of Mesa Public Safety, local business owners, and community leaders.

THE NEED FOR MINORITIES IN THE REGISTRY

Because tissue types are inherited, patients are most likely to match someone of their own race or ethnicity. Registry members from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds are especially needed. Caucasians make up 74% of the registry. Hispanic/Latino make up 10% of registry, African American/Black make up 7%, Asian/South Asian make up 7%, Multiple Races make up 3%, American Indian/Alaska Native make up 1%, and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander make up 0.1%.
