National Donate Life Month 2016
Every April we celebrate National Donate Life Month to encourage everyone to register as organ, eye and tissue donors. Help celebrate life!
Donate Life America was inspired by the mighty sunflower. Through life and its struggles, the sunflower reminds us to lean on each other and embrace the life-giving aspects of our lives. It reminds us to live with joy, to focus on the light even during difficult times, and to give freely to save the lives of others when we are gone.
