Donate Life Month PSA
April is Donate Life Month, and to celebrate the life-saving gift that is living donation, we put together some clips of our donors and recipients sharing their stories of how living donation has changed their lives.
Living donation is a second chance at life.
We aspire to eliminate the shortage of organs for lifesaving transplants by being a trusted education resource for living organ donation and the leading provider of advocacy services for living donors.
The need for organs is vastly greater than the number available for transplantation.

NEW LIVE WEBINAR
The Living Donor Journey
May 15th, 2026, 12PM CST
Living donor transplant offers significant survival and quality-of-life benefits compared to deceased donor transplantation; however, living donation remains underutilized due to barriers that extend beyond medical eligibility. This presentation examines the living donor journey through a psychosocial framework, highlighting how motivations, family dynamics, healthcare system processes, and structural factors influence donor decision-making and outcomes. Drawing on clinical experience and current literature, this presentation explores key stages of the donor journey – from initial consideration through long-term post-donation life.
An organ donor can save a life every 13 hours. The quality of life post donation doesn’t suffer a bit.
Living organ donation is an option. Most people don't know it has the best result, long term. In fact, many people get on dialysis before they know what the transplant options are.
