Financial donations
“My son is alive now because of a cord blood donor. And there’s a big chance he wouldn’t be because we couldn’t find a stem cell match and needed one really quickly to save his life. Donors mean a lot to us.” — Manny, Tristan’s mom.
Financial donations helped establish Canada’s public cord blood bank that changed Tristan’s family forever — and they can still help today. It’s for patients like Tristan that we need 450 new donors every day to keep Canada’s Lifeline strong this winter. When you donate financially, you fuel recruitment activities that help us get closer to the 450 new donors we need daily to make more lifesaving connections possible.
It's easy to give
When patients are in need, there’s more than one way to show up and make a difference. Financial donations to Canada’s Lifeline are an important way to answer the call.
Donate each month or make a one-time gift to celebrate a special occasion or honour a loved one. You can even explore leaving a gift in your will, or inspiring and engaging your staff through corporate giving.
No matter how you choose to give, every dollar will make a difference in our efforts to improve outcomes for patients who depend on us.
