There are many foundations that have been set up to spread the word about the cord blood bank and promote its use among parents. One that stands out is the Cord Blood Foundation Parent Guide.
The Parent's Guide to Cord Blood was created in 1998 in order to provide parents with objective information on cord blood banks. In 2007, Dr. Frances Verter founder and a board of the newly formed Administrative Board incorporated the initiative as a non-profit foundation.
Dr. Verter started the foundation after her first child, Shai Miranda Verter, died after being diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma (a cancerous tumor in his pelvis). When she gave birth to her second child, Dr. Verter decided to bank cord blood of the newborn, as she "wanted to give my children every possible form of health insurance."
However, finding information on the subject proved to be very difficult at the time. it was then that she decided to start the parent's Guide to cord blood to help other parents who difficulties in finding information on the subject.
over the years, the cord blood parent Guide has helped a wide range of parents to make informed decisions about the cord blood bank . the foundation provides the latest information on the process of cord blood bank, medical applications, research cord blood, as well as what to look for in a cord blood bank. visitors can donate to the foundation to support their meaningful work
