Celebrating 29 Years of Awarding Grants, 1983-2012
The National Blood Foundation (NBF), established in 1983, has a history of supporting research and education that advances transfusion medicine and blood banking to benefit both patients and donors. Funds are raised annually from corporations, blood centers, foundations, and individuals by NBF for the National Blood Foundation Research and Education Trust Fund (NBFRET) and NBF. NBF and NBFRET, which are 501(c)(3) organizations, provide grants for scientific research in the fields of transfusion medicine and cellular therapies and support educational initiatives that benefit the transfusion medicine community. Since 1983, the NBF has distributed $7 million to 171 early-career scientists.
