Cord Blood America, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: CBAI), the umbilical cord blood stem cell preservation company (http://www.cordblood-america.com) focused on bringing the life saving potential of stem cells, a biological insurance policy, to families nationwide and internationally, announced today that it has contracted with The Center for Stem Cell Awareness to re-sell its stem cell collection and storage services.
The Center for Stem Cell Awareness, Inc., Sarasota, Florida (www.babyslifeline.com) has contracted to sell these services throughout the state of Florida.
"This is another very important step forward for Cord Blood America. As a direct result of processing and storing cord blood stem cells in our own laboratory, it allows CBAI to contract partners who will sell our services without CBAI's out-of-pocket investment to develop a new territory. We are fortunate to work with The Center for Stem Cell Awareness, and are very pleased to make this announcement," said Matthew Schissler, CBAI co-founder and CEO.
The Center for Stem Cell Awareness, founded by Joan and Jeff Williams, was a personal endeavor based on a real life scenario with their daughter. Realizing that most expectant parents have no idea about the research and medical breakthroughs with cord blood stem cells, they started their company with the goal of providing an educational resource for expectant families and their physicians to draw upon.
