What Community Blood Center does
Mission
The mission of CBC/CTS is to provide donors the opportunity to save and enhance lives through trusted community-based resources for transfusion and transplantation. CBC/CTS is dedicated to protecting the donation of blood and tissue from donors to recipients.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
On its FY2024 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.
The blood banking program service was discontinued in November 2024.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).
Tissue Services - As a community tissue service organization, CTS is a provider of services to donor families, recipients, and the community through education, recovery, processing and distribution of tissue grafts. CTS ensures an informed donor family, the respectful removal of tissue from the donor, and the processing and safekeeping of the donated tissue until it is delivered for transplantation to a recipient. CTS pays any direct tissue costs and reconstruction fees along with transportation of the tissue donation. The donors do not incur any expenses. CTS is available to recipients to answer questions and tracks recipient's information in the case of an adverse event. CTS researches and develops new technology to better serve recipients.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $452M to $542M (+20%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
0% of Community Blood Center’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (1% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $58 → $36.
1 of 1 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of Community Blood Center’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
100% of Community Blood Center's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $153 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
