Save the Cord Foundation is proud to announce that we are taking our voice to the Arizona capitol! As part of our on-going efforts to support World Cancer Day (February 4th), we will be joining forces with the American Cancer Society on February 6th at the Arizona State Capitol. Our team will be there to educate lawmakers on the life-saving benefits of cord blood donation. We will be highlighting the amazing work done everyday by the Arizona Public Cord Blood program, a state-run cord blood donation program. In particular, we will be highlighting the 51 (and counting!!) transplants made possible thanks to this program. This is a moment to celebrate and build awareness with those who have the power to expand the Arizona Public Cord Blood program throughout the state. Join us on the day. Let's make our voices heard!
