A Family Bank, From The Start

Marty and Tina, co-Founders of Americord, embarked on their journey in 2008 inspired by a deeply personal experience – the preservation of their own daughter's cord blood stem cells. Recognizing a critical gap in the field, they have wholeheartedly dedicated their lives and careers to revolutionizing cord blood banking for families nationwide. With a foundation built on their personal journey, Marty and Tina have nurtured Americord into a family bank from the start.
