LEAVE A LEGACY OF HOPE

A GIFT THAT LIVES BEYOND A LIFETIME

Every day, the Cleveland Cord Blood Center helps transform one of life’s most precious gifts into hope for patients, families, and future generations. Through public cord blood banking, stem cell transplantation, and research, we support discoveries and treatments that can change lives.

By including the Cleveland Cord Blood Center in your estate plans, you can help ensure that this important work continues for years to come.

A planned gift is a powerful way to create a lasting legacy while supporting a future where more patients have access to lifesaving therapies and groundbreaking medical advances.

WHY PLANNED GIVING MATTERS

The impact of cord blood often extends far beyond the day it is donated. In much the same way, a planned gift creates benefits that reach far into the future.

Your legacy gift can help:

  • Expand access to public cord blood banking
  • Support innovative stem cell research
  • Increase education and community awareness
  • Invest in future technologies and infrastructure
  • Ensure that lifesaving resources remain available for generations to come

No matter the size of the gift, your legacy can help advance hope, healing, and discovery.

WAYS TO LEAVE A LEGACY

Include the Cleveland Cord Blood Center in Your Will or Trust

One of the simplest ways to make a lasting impact is by naming the Cleveland Cord Blood Center as a beneficiary in your will or living trust.

You may choose to leave:

  • A specific dollar amount
  • A percentage of your estate
  • The remainder of your estate after other obligations are fulfilled

Name the Cleveland Cord Blood Center as a Beneficiary

You can designate the Cleveland Cord Blood Center as a beneficiary of:

  • Retirement accounts
  • Life insurance policies
  • Bank or investment accounts
  • Donor-advised funds, where permitted

This approach is often simple to establish and can be updated at any time.

Charitable Gift Annuities and Trusts

Some planned gifts may provide income for you or your loved ones while supporting the Cleveland Cord Blood Center in the future.

We encourage you to consult with your financial, legal, or tax advisor to determine which option best aligns with your goals.

YOUR LEGACY. THEIR FUTURE.

A family donating cord blood today may never know whose life it touches tomorrow.

Likewise, your planned gift can create opportunities you may never see, helping future patients receive treatment, supporting researchers pursuing new breakthroughs, and ensuring that hope remains available to those who need it most.

Your legacy can become part of every discovery, every transplant opportunity, and every life touched by the Cleveland Cord Blood Center.
