Below are resources for promoting National Donate Life Month
Leave a Legacy
During National Donate Life Month in April, we honor the people who have given the gift of life through organ, eye and tissue donation. We also celebrate the lives that have been saved and healed because of a donor’s generosity.
This year’s theme uses trees as a symbol of life and connection. Just like trees grow and support each other in a forest, donation connects people – donors, recipients, and their families. Like a tree that grows and stands for generations, a donor’s gift leaves a lasting legacy of hope and life.
Get out in your local community and on social media like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, to help us honor donors, recipients, and their families and caregivers.
