Mai Duong, our founder, was diagnosed with leukemia for the second time, and faced difficulties finding a compatible stem cell donor due to her ethnicity. Stem cell transplants are often the last resort for curing blood cancer.
Context: In order for a stem cell transplant to work, the patient and donor must share the same ethnic background. Currently, there is a shortage of non-Caucasian stem cell donors.
Our mission:
To raise awareness about stem cell donation.
To diversify the global registry.
To help patients find compatible donors.
All patients, regardless of their ethnic background, deserve the same chance of survival.

Mai Duong, notre fondatrice, diagnostiquée une seconde fois avec la leucémie, a eu des difficultés à trouver un donneur de cellules souches compatible en raison de ses origines ethniques. C’est souvent le traitement de dernier recours pour guérir de la leucémie.
Contexte : Les greffes de cellules souches nécessitent des donneurs de la même origine ethnique, mais il existe une grave pénurie de donneurs non-Causasiens.
Notre mission :
Sensibiliser au don de cellules souches.
Diversifier le registre mondial des donneurs.
Aider les patients à trouver des donneurs compatibles.
Parce que tous les malades, peu importe leurs origines ethniques, méritent la même chance de s’en sortir.
