 Michael Amini Transfusion Medicine Center

Michael Amini Transfusion Medicine Center
City of Hope is one of the largest, hospital-based donor centers in the country. Soon we will be the most modern as well with the opening of the Michael Amini Transfusion Medicine Center, a green-certified, state-of-the-art facility that will enable us to expand our blood collection, analysis, processing and transfusion programs dramatically.

Patients at City of Hope – most of whom are fighting cancer – rely on more than 25,000 units of blood and platelets each year for their survival. And every one of those units comes from people like you – family, friends and other caring individuals who want to make a difference.

Because there is no substitute for human blood, your donation is a lifeline to the men, women and children in our care. Along with strength, it provides hope, for which there is no substitute as well.

National Marrow Donor Program
The National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) is the largest, most diverse marrow and blood stem cell registry in the world, facilitating critically needed transplants for patients with leukemia and other life-threatening diseases across the country. Thirty percent of all patients who need a bone marrow transplant will find a suitable donor within his or her family. The other 70 percent of patients rely on unrelated volunteer donors registered with the NMDP.

City of Hope is an NMDP-designated Donor Center, Collection Center, Apheresis Center and Transplant Center. Click here to learn how to register and donate peripheral blood stem cells and marrow.

Donation Qualifications
To ensure the safety of patients and donors, certain qualifications must be met before giving. Units of blood and platelets collected at City of Hope are used for City of Hope patients only.

Blood Drives
The men, women and children in our care depend on the generosity of people like you. The blood or platelets you donate provides a direct lifeline to hope.
