The Sunflower Fund is an NGO focused on creating awareness of the critical need for blood stem cell donors and educates around the process of becoming a donor. They raise funds to pay for the R2500 genetic test required to register potential donors on the South African Bone Marrow Registry.

For patients diagnosed with a blood disorder or blood cancers such as Leukaemia, for many, their only chance of survival is finding a matching blood stem cell donor.
