How do we spend funds?

Registration and PBSC Related Costs
48%

Registration and PBSC Related Costs (48%)

Every registered donor gets listed in the worldwide registry with his HLA tissue type, which gets extracted in our laboratory of the swab kit they provide. The patient has also had their HLA tissue type analyzed and listed in the database, making it possible to find potential matching donors.

Education and Awareness Campaign (33%)

The money is mainly used to fund the registration of new donors, but we also use it to educate, create awareness about the cause, and keep addresses and contact details of existing donors up to date so we can be sure to reach them if we need to. Because every day counts for Blood Cancer patients!

Others (19%)

In addition, we support blood cancer research and work continuously to improve the typing quality of our registered donors so patients will have a better chance of finding a match.
