Every 27 seconds, a patient receives the devastating news that they have been diagnosed with blood cancer or a blood disorder. Their journey towards a possible cure begins, and for many, that cure lies in a stem cell transplantation. However, the odds of finding a matching stem cell donor are incredibly low, like finding a needle in a haystack. 50% of patients find their lifesaving donor in another country through the global database. This database is a lifeline for patients in need.
