As the primary supplier of blood and tissue in Central Texas, The Blood and Tissue Center receives compensation from customers for its day-to-day operations. Those operations include the collection, processing, testing, storage and delivery services that are required to maintain a safe blood and tissue supply.
However, the cost of blood and tissue go far beyond the day-to-day operations of The Blood and Tissue Center. Your financial contribution will help fund community outreach and capital projects that are essential to ensure that needed blood and tissue are available.

The population of the Austin area has grown 8.1% since 2000 and is projected to continue increasing by 19,000 people a year! Financial contributions help us keep up with our community's growing need for blood and tissue donations.
