Stories: Canadian Blood Services

It's official: Canadian Blood Services’ Cord Blood Bank, a national, public health-care resource has been launched. Expectant mothers who give birth at one of our partnering hospitals are helping to build an ethnically diverse stem cell bank in Canada by donating their baby’s cord blood.

Community supporters and guests gathered at a special event on Feb. 27 to learn about Canadian Blood Services’ footprint in Peel Region, specifically the Canadian Blood Services’ Cord Blood Bank and the need for more stem cell donations.

Canadian Blood Services is proud to be named by the Financial Post as one of the most accountable, transparent charities in the country.

Over the past several days, Canadians from across the country came together in grief following the tragic incident that took the lives of 16 people and injured 13 others.
