DNA Ancestry
Learn more about your donor’s ethnic background with new DNA Ancestry. DNA Ancestry is a report of the donor’s geographical ethnicity obtained through DNA analysis. It includes ancestry data for 26 unique geographic regions and ethnic groups. DNA Ancestry combined with a donor’s self-reported ancestry creates a more detailed picture of a donor which can help with donor selection. It also provides future children with more details about their own ancestry, while maintaining the appropriate level of privacy for our donors and client families. This is a Level 1 item that can be downloaded for free from a donor’s profile page. (DNA Ancestry reports are not available for all donors.)

CCB Coast to Coast
We are proud to offer CCB Coast to Coast, a program that allows clients living near one of our branches to store and pick-up specimens locally. Save time and money by transferring your vials to the branch nearest you - New York, Boston, or San Francisco. Purchase Family Today or Family Tomorrow and CCB will waive the regular branch transfer fee. For those who don't live in one of our branch metro areas, we continue to offer FedEx 2-Day and Overnight shipping with 24 hour tracking and email-notification services.
Please allow up to 7 business days for local access to your purchased vials. Also note that you will need to schedule a pick-up of your vials after they have arrived locally by calling 866-927-9622. Due to the delicate nature of cryogenic storage and transport, we will not be able to accommodate unscheduled, walk-in requests.
New Donor Information - Keirsey Q&A, Express Yourself, and Childhood Photo(s)
Keirsey Q&A
The Keirsey Temperament Sorter is an intriguing and revealing way to explore your favorite donors. Now, in addition to getting the 10-page Keirsey Report, you may view the donor's answers to ten questions from the actual test by purchasing our Level III "Full Access" Donor Subscription package. Find out what your favorite donor does when waiting in line and whether he considers himself a good listener!
Express Yourself
Introducing CCB's newest and most original donor information item yet! Express Yourself presents each donor with a blank piece of paper and the opportunity to present "who" he is in any form that best suits his personality. You'll find original poetry, songs, essays, photographs, drawings, recipes, and anything else a donor can imagine to express his inner-self. It is a fascinating way to get to know a donor like never before. The more of them you read, the more unique and interesting your favorite donors become. Express Yourself is included in both the Level II (The Essentials) and Level III (Full Access) subscription options (online viewing only). If you prefer to purchase Express Yourself for individual donors, they may be ordered and downloaded from the Donor Information Center a la cart menu. Please note that Express Yourself is not available for all donors.
Childhood Photo(s)
Think Baby Photos are cute and helpful in selecting your donor? Wait until you see California Cryobank's new Childhood Photo(s) featuring multiple photos of each donor from ages 6 months to 12 years old. Sign up for a Level II (The Essentials) or Level III (Full Access) Donor Information Subscription and gain immediate access to a series of up to 3 different Childhood Photos for each donor (online viewing only). If you prefer to purchase and download photos for individual donors, you may do so from the Donor Information Center a la cart menu. Individual purchases of Childhood Photo(s) will include all available photos at no extra charge. Please note that donors with Childhood Photo(s) may have 1-3 photos available depending on what the donor has provided to CCB. Childhood Photo(s) is not available for all donors.

Family Today & Family Tomorrow
CCB now offers two new family planning programs to help meet each client's needs.
Family Today is designed for those primarily focused on their family's immediate future and offers 1 year of free storage with the purchase of 4 or more vials. While it may not take 4 vials, national averages range from 3-4 insemination cycles per successful pregnancy. The only way to guarantee your donor will be available is to plan ahead. Family Today protects your future opportunities without you having to worry about storage fees.
Family Tomorrow is designed for those already thinking about additional children down the road and provides 3 years of free storage with the purchase of 8 or more vials. We currently have hundreds of clients anxiously hoping for another child, but are unable to get started because their donor is retired and/or sold out. If you are at all considering having more children, Family Tomorrow is the only way to guarantee your donor will still be available.
