Bone marrow transplant donor support project

Business overview

In order to reduce the burden on bone marrow/peripheral blood stem cell donors (hereinafter referred to as "donors") and promote bone marrow transplantation/donor registration, Itabashi Ward provides financial incentives to donors and businesses where donors work. We carry out business from April 1, 2018.
Applications for issuance are accepted at the counter or by mail.
The purpose of this project is to increase the number of unrelated donors registered so that as many patients with blood diseases as leukemia, which are difficult to treat, can receive bone marrow donation. *Bone marrow donor registration to the bone marrow bank is done at any time at each blood donation room in Tokyo (03-5272-3528). For information on donor registration and bone marrow banks, please visit the bone marrow bank website or contact the Japan Bone Marrow Bank (03-5280-1789).
