Umbilical Cord Blood Donation
UMass Memorial Medical Center provides the option to donate your baby’s umbilical cord blood at the time of delivery. The blood that remains in the umbilical cord and placenta after a baby's birth is rich in stem cells that are found in bone marrow. It used to be thrown away as waste, but by donating it you can help advance medical research.
Cord blood donation for research is easy and at no cost to you.
