The Gift of LIfe Bone Marrow Foundation facilitates bone marrow, blood stem cell and umbilical cord blood transplants for patients around the world. The organization's unique recruitment priority targeting North America's Jewish communities arose in response to the Holocaust, which severed bloodlines and made the search for matches for Jewish patients very difficult. Gift of Life's Umbilical Cord Blood Program is the first to recruit from this population, and will improve the ethnic diversity of the donor pool while bridging the gap for those patients who cannot find genetically matched adult marrow donors.
