National Donate Life Month

April is National Donate Life Month, a time when Donate Life organizations across the country strive to make LIFE possible by educating and motivating individuals to register their decision to be an organ, eye, and tissue donors.

Life sure is a beautiful ride. Each of our rides will be a different journey, but no matter where your journey takes you there is the opportunity to make it a beautiful ride for others as well.

Each April celebrates National Donate Life Month) to focus national attention on organ, eye, and tissue donation and transplantation — to share the importance of registering your decision to be a donor, honor deceased and living donors, and celebrate the lifesaving and healing gift of transplantation.

For National Donate Life Month 2022, Donate Life America was inspired by the springtime scene of a garden. A garden and the insects within it serve as symbols of hope, courage, and transformed life — themes repeatedly found within the donation and transplantation journey.

The Donate Life garden depicts an ecosystem of plants, insects, and other components working together to form an interconnected living system. Similarly, we each have the potential to nurture and enrich our communities through organ, eye, and tissue donation. This National Donate Life Month, we ask you to be a part of this lifesaving and healing garden by registering as an organ, eye, and tissue donor; becoming educated about living donation, and championing the Donate Life cause.

We wish you a Happy National Donate Life Month. Thank you for your efforts in promoting organ, eye, and tissue donation and the importance of registering your decision. In California, that means checking “YES!” every time at the DMV or signing up at www.donateLIFEcalifornia.org.
