Community Tissue Service

Everyday CBC hosts up to three blood drives on a bus where all blood drive activity occurs on the bus. We are also going out into the community with The LAB, a mobile classroom hands-on learning experiences on how the heart, blood and circulatory system work. CBC/CTS provides donors the extraordinary opportunity to save and enhance lives through trusted community-based resources for transfusion and transplantation.

As a not-for-profit, 501c(3) organization, CBC/CTS delivers the confidence and tradition of 50 years of service to those hospitals it serves. Both the American Association of Blood Banks and the American Association of Tissue Banks accredit CBC/CTS. CBC is also a member of America's Blood Centers, a national network of non-profit, local, independent community blood centers that collect about half (47 percent) of the U.S. blood supply.
