Charitable Contributions

At Centocor Ortho Biotech, we dedicate our hearts and minds to improving the health of individuals with devastating disease. We pursue innovative solutions for patients fighting cancer, chronic kidney disease and immune-mediated inflammatory disease. Our discoveries lead to new treatments and new ways to empower patients and expand their access to quality care. We believe that changing lives for the better takes more than medicine. As part of Johnson & Johnson, we are also committed to our Credo, which guides us to provide high quality products and services to healthcare professionals and patients and to support the communities in which we work and live.
