You can join the Stem Cell Registry at donation sites – receive a bead lizard as a gift

The Stem Cell Registry is constantly in need of new members. You can join the registry at Finnish Blood Service locations, for example when donating blood. Right now, those who sign up can receive an adorable beaded lizard as a gift – a limited number are available at the locations.

The story behind the beaded lizards is touching: the beautiful lizards have been made for new members by a young junior football player who had to put her beloved hobby on hold due to leukemia. Now that she can’t be on the pitch, she wants to thank those who join the Stem Cell Registry in this way. The lizards are available for a limited time at Finnish Blood Service locations for those who join the Stem Cell Registry.

Check if you’re eligible to join and come visit us – You’re also welcome to donate blood while you’re there! Everyone who joins the Stem Cell Registry is a potential lifesaver.
