Why Bank?

Stem cells from newborn umbilical cord blood + cord tissue are a treasure that can potentially save your baby or family member who may need a lifesaving treatment.  Cord blood and cord tissue are only available immediately after birth. Industry research has confirmed that cord blood stem cells remain viable after 30 years of cryopreservation. Cord for Life has been successfully storing highly functional stem cells for 27 years and counting. The process to collect your newborn’s stem cells is a simple and painless part of the delivery process.

REAL STORIES

In thinking about cord blood banking, it helps to hear from parents who thought about the same questions you have.


Stacey Hensley


I have stored all five of my children’s cord blood. I love the reassurance of knowing that all five of my children have their stem cells and all five are stored together at the same facility.  My children may never need it but, their stem cells are there if they do.  It’s like having life insurance policy, we most likely will never need it, but it’s reassuring that it’s there in case we do.



The ultimate measure of our success is a healthy patient.
