Why Donate Cord Blood ? | Public Cord Blood Bank

At the end of the birthing process, the umbilical cord and the placenta are thrown away. Their job is over. Or is it?
 

Thousands of sick people, in Israel and around the world, are in need of a bone marrow transplant. Unfortunately, many patients can't have this lifesaving procedure done because an almost perfect match is needed between the donator and the patient. Cord Blood can be a solution to this critical problem; especially in light of the fact that cord blood does not necessitate complete matching profiles.

There is a small chance that you or your baby will use the Cord Blood you donated – but on the other hand, your cord blood donation to a public bank gives hope to others. Every ethnic group and each population has their own unique genetic properties. The probability of finding a match is higher among donations from your own populace. Donating your child's cord blood can save someone's life. Maybe you will be saving the life of someone close to you!

Every portion of cord blood donated, one by one, come together to build a public bank of hope and life. Chances for finding a match grow proportionately along with cord blood donations. Our purpose is clear. And our message is heard as we see awareness growing in the community. Every month sees more and more donations, adding to the chances of saving life.
People's lives are hanging in the balance. Hundreds of sick people are waiting for a proper match – many dying while they wait. You can help them!
 

Your donation can be the one that will give them another chance at life. Don't throw it away!


Their life is in your hands. Make the right choice and donate cord blood. Give life and hope to those whose chances are ebbing. Start your baby's life with a gift of life to others.
