July is National Cord Blood Awareness Month. It is a time during which the importance of cord blood and tissue stem cells is celebrated.

The Campaign for Cord Blood Banking Awareness

In partnership with the Save the Cord Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to cord blood banking awareness and education, BioInformant has launched an awareness campaign titled, “Cord Blood Banking Awareness: Educating America and the World.”

Education: Cord Blood Awareness Month

The campaign is a global effort that will educate currently expecting parents, as well as future parents, grandparents, siblings, and friends, about the medical benefits of cord blood preservation. The campaign involves the distribution of facts about cord blood banking awareness, as well as the distribution of media content and videos sharing factual information about cord blood banking awareness rates in the U.S. and other countries worldwide.

These cord blood banking awareness facts are released by  Save the Cord Foundation and are shared across our websites and our social media platforms:
