About National Marrow Donor Program

The National Marrow Donor Program® (NMDP) is the global leader in providing marrow and umbilical cord blood transplants to patients with leukemia, lymphoma and other diseases. The nonprofit organization matches patients with donors, educates health care professionals and conducts research so more lives can be saved. The NMDP also operates Be The Match®, which provides support for patients and enlists others in the community to join the Be The Match Registry® – the world's largest listing of potential marrow donors and donated cord blood units – contribute financially and volunteer.

We are committed to vital research. The CIBMTR® (Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research) collaborates with the global scientific community to advance hematopoietic cell transplantation and cellular therapy research worldwide. A combined research program of the NMDP and the Medical College of Wisconsin, the CIBMTR facilitates critical, cutting-edge research that has led to increased survival and an enriched quality of life for thousands of patients. Today, the NMDP continues to grow to meet the needs of patients whose best – and often only – hope for a cure is a marrow or cord blood transplant.
