National Donate Life Month
National Donate Life Month
National Donate Life Month is celebrated each April to recognize and honor the generosity of those who have saved lives by becoming organ, eye, and tissue donors. This month-long observance is also an opportunity to encourage more Americans to register as organ, eye, and tissue donors. In honoring the incredible Gift of Life of the selfless donors, we also celebrate the families and friends of donors who have supported their loved one’s decision to donate.
This year's theme uses trees as 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.
