About HAWAII CORD BLOOD BANK
Hawaiʻi Cord Blood Bank (HCBB) operates a public umbilical cord blood bank in Honolulu that collects, processes, and lists cord blood units for use in stem cell transplants. The organization emphasizes Hawaiʻi’s ethnic diversity as an asset for increasing donor match opportunities for minority and multiracial patients who are underrepresented in national registries. HCBB partners with major Oʻahu delivery hospitals to offer free, anonymous donation to families and makes collected units searchable through national registries so patients worldwide can identify matches. The bank engages community and clinical partners, maintains quality qualifications for collected cellular material, and conducts ongoing outreach and education to increase donations.
