Adelson Collection Center\u2014the largest registry-operated unrelated donor stem cell collection facility\u2014alongside the expansion of the organization\u2019s Center for Cell and Gene Therapy. The new facilities increase the number of donor suites available for collection and enhance laboratory services supporting cell and gene therapy innovation.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">The celebration was led by Jay Feinberg, Founder and CEO of Gift of Life Marrow Registry, a 30-year leukemia survivor and transplant recipient, and was joined by key partners and longtime supporters Dr. Miriam Adelson, Charles Bronfman, Miri Shepher, Sara Aronson and Evie Goldfine, whose philanthropy has played a vital role in expanding access to lifesaving transplants. Stephen B.

It marks what is possible when vision, philanthropy and mission come together in service of patients around the world whose very survival depends on life-saving transplants and stem cell therapies,\u201d said Feinberg. \u201cAt Gift of Life, we believe every patient deserves an equal opportunity to receive the transplant that can save their lives. Those core values have\u00a0<strong>driven<\/strong>\u00a0us to build something <strong>truly<\/strong> <strong>unique here<\/strong>: a first of its kind, <strong>fully integrated facility<\/strong>\u2014everything happens here\u2014from donor recruitment to clinical testing to case management to medical services, to stem cell collection, laboratory processing, cryopreservation and stem cell distribution\u2014it all happens here, under one roof, and with one defining purpose: saving lives. This expansion dramatically increases our ability to deliver on this promise\u2014at scale, with efficiency, precision and compassion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\u201cAs a physician, saving lives is deeply personal to me,\u201d said Dr. Adelson. \u201cMy support for Gift of Life reflects a belief I hold both professionally and personally, that innovation and compassion belong together. This work is ultimately about people, donors who step forward selflessly and patients whose lives depend on timely, lifesaving transplants. It is especially meaningful to be part of an organization that not only saves lives today, but is building a lasting foundation of hope for families around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">The Adelson Collection Center has always been known for its signature warm, inviting environment and concierge-style donor experience. With the increased capacity, more donors can be scheduled each week so that patients can receive transplants faster and more reliably once a match is identified.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">In parallel, the expansion of Gift of Life\u2019s Center for Cell and Gene Therapy increases capacity for its CLIA-certified clinical testing services, sophisticated cell processing and cryopreservation services and research activities.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><strong><u>About Gift of Life Marrow Registry<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Gift of Life Marrow Registry is a nonprofit organization headquartered in Boca Raton, Fla.
