What the charity does

Race Against Blood Cancer's goal is to increase the volume and diversity of people who register as potentially life-saving stem cell donors.Our ultimate goal is to increase the number of people from minority groups ? whether defined by race, ethnicity or gender ? which are vastly underrepresented on the donor registry as stem cell or bone marrow donors.
