In 1993, the Stem Cell Center, a bone marrow registry to save people with blood diseases, was established. More than 400,000 donors are now registered. In its twenty years of operation, the center has helped find donors for more than 4,000 patients in 29 countries.
In 1996, Tzu Chi International Medical Association was just founded and now, the organizations are distributed to 24 countries and have over 58 locations. No matter in the cities or off-track mountains and seacoast, medical staff and volunteers always give great love and save the poor and the sick unselfishly.
Since 2001, Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital has been received a lot of overseas patients referred from the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Sri lanka...
