About us:

Your Ethnicity Could Save a Life: Why You Should Join Our Team ?

Swab The World is a non-profit organization founded by a blood cancer survivor who struggled to find a stem cell donor due to her ethnicity. The tea is, 70% of all registered stem cell donors are Caucasian, even though roughly 85% of the world's population is not. Our mission is simple: increase awareness about stem cell donation and diversify registries globally so that all patients, regardless of ethnic background, have an equal fighting chance.

Our team is passionate, tech-savvy, and committed to diversifying the global stem cell registry using communications and marketing strategies. Even though we're serious about tackling ethnic inequality and saving lives, we're all about making sure our environment is fun and dynamic!

- Organize and execute monthly donor recruitment events on campuses across Ontario and the rest of Canada.
