Description: The Blood and Tissue Center of Central Texas is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Its mission is to safeguard the community''s gifts of blood and tissue with uncompromising quality and excellence in customer service. The Center is licensed by the US Food and Drug Administration, accredited by the American Association of Blood Banks and American Association of Tissue Banks, and is a proud member of America''s Blood Centers. The Blood and Tissue Center today is the exclusive provider and guardian of the community blood supply for more than 37 medical facilities in a ten-county service area of Central Texas. In 2010, over 56,000 whole blood donations and 7,700 apheresis platelet donations were collected. These donations are tested extensively to assure suitability for transfusion and processed into life saving components: red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, which go to help Central Texas patients. The Center works with the Marrow Donor Program of Central and South Texas to increase the number of Central Texans on the National Marrow Donor Registry. The Tissue Services division was established in 1985 due to the increasing demand for allograft tissue. Today, The Tissue Center surgically recovers tissue from approximately 300 donors each year and assists with donor family services. The Tissue Center''s main facility is located in Austin with a satellite office in Corpus Christi.
