: Small things can grow to new heights! πŸ’™πŸŒ³πŸ’š Thanks to unwavering dedication to our mission, we've grown from just over 100 donors in the beginning to nearly 2,500 eye tissue donors annually across Colorado and Wyoming! This incredible growth is proof of the selflessness of our region and is giving the gift of restored sight back to thousands through restorative cornea and other eye tissue transplants each year. πŸ‘οΈβœ¨

: Donor mother, Julie, shared the touching legacy of her son, Evan at a recent flag raising ceremony at HCA HealthONE Presbyterian St. Luke's Medical Center Evan passed away in a tragic accident, but saved and healed many lives through organ and tissue donation and restored sight for two people through eye donation.

"About a month after his death, Julie and her younger son Colin traveled to Ireland to fulfill a promise she had made Evan: that she would take him there for college graduation. They scattered his ashes from the cliffs into the sea.

When they returned home, bags still unpacked, a letter from the Rocky Mountain Lions Eye Bank was waiting. Halfway down the page, Julie read that Evan's left cornea had been placed with a man living in Ireland, whose sight had been successfully restored."

Julie Speer said her teenage son's decision to register as an organ donor gave life to four people after his death.
