Have you ever wondered why, despite today’s technology, we still struggle to find cures for conditions such as cancer, cerebral palsy, autism and arthritis? It's simple - we're all unique. What works for one of us may not work for another. That's why where some medicines fail, stem cells succeed.

This company has been founded on the mission of connecting the 7 billion potential stem cell donors worldwide – each one a potential life saver for a loved one or stranger somewhere on this planet. They want you to #BePartOfIt
