One selfless ‘YES’ turned heartbreak into hope: Honoring the life and legacy of Grace Edwards, nursing student, loving daughter, sister, friend, and organ donor.

Earlier this week, more than 100 family members, friends, classmates, medical professionals, and OneLegacy staff lined the halls of MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center to honor 19-year-old APU nursing student and organ donor, Grace Edwards. By saying “YES” to organ donation, Grace gave the gift of life to five people on the organ transplant waiting list – including a young boy from California, who received her heart, and four grateful recipients across three states: California, Georgia and Pennsylvania.

This was one of the largest honor walks MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center has ever hosted, and they were profoundly grateful to support the family through this moment alongside OneLegacy. Grace’s legacy will continue shining through the lives of those she saved this week.

What Happens When Compassion Meets Innovation in Organ Donation?

OneLegacy’s October 23rd Symposium — Foundations and Advancements in Donation — brought together 165 medical professionals from 40 hospitals, with more than 60% attending for the first time to reflect on this question. The Symposium created space for donation leaders, clinicians, chaplains, and ethicists to explore the human side of saving lives with the registered attendees.

Keynote speakers included Chaplain Michel Interlicchia of Providence Holy Cross Medical Center, Ethicist Dr. Miriam Cotler, Michael Muñoz Romero, Nurse Manager of UCI Health’s Division of Transplant, Donor Families and Transplant Recipients. Together, they shared insights on compassion, ethics, and the complex journey from loss to life.

Guests toured OneLegacy’s technologically advanced recovery center and heard powerful stories including talks titled The Power of Yes: A Family’s Decision to Donate, From Gift to Legacy: Keeping Donors’ Legacies Alive, and The Journey of Hope: How Donation Becomes Transplantation.
From UC Irvine to Pomona Valley and Ronald Reagan UCLA, the message was clear: donation is both a science and an act of humanity. At OneLegacy, we are proud to unite our community around one powerful truth: saving lives begins with compassion and advances through science.

We had an amazing time connecting with our community at Taste of Soul 2025 this past weekend! As one of L.A.’s largest and most vibrant street festivals, this event was the perfect space to share the importance of organ, eye, and tissue donation with thousands of attendees.

At the OneLegacy booth, visitors created their own custom tote bags, picked up lifesaving information, and learned how donation transforms lives, right here in the communities we serve.

We're grateful for every conversation, every question, and every moment shared. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to learn, connect, and celebrate the gift of life with us!

Sheila Rodriguez will be a Walker Honoree on this year's float. Honored by OneLegacy

At 33 years old, Sheila Rodriguez made the life-changing decision to become a living liver donor, offering a portion of her liver to someone in need. She has built a distinguished career as a public safety dispatcher and currently serves as a Tactical Dispatcher for North County SWAT in Orange County. Sheila was also honored with a Lifesaving Award after successfully instructing CPR over the phone. Her decision to donate a portion of her liver wasn’t taken lightly.

Though her family was understandably apprehensive about the risks involved, they stood by her with love, pride, and admiration. The experience inspired others in her life to consider the lasting impact of organ donation. Her role as a living donor also led her to become an ambassador for OneLegacy, where she now shares her story to raise awareness about organ, eye, and tissue donation. She continues to live each day with intention, lifting others up through compassion, courage, and connection.

Jayden Saenz will be a Floragraph honoree on this year's float. Honored by OneLegacy

In his short, joyful life, Jayden cherished every moment with his beloved big brother, Mayson, his sister Atalia, Mom and Dad. Mayson and Jayden loved to play soldiers and dress up in Ghillie suits. Jayden’s playful nature and energy made every day brighter for his family and friends. He enjoyed swimming, visiting the park, and cheering at Mayson’s baseball games. He also LOVED having his face painted. We went to Disneyland and he was supposed to have his face half painted, with his charm somehow convinced the artist to paint his entire face.

At preschool, he loved learning with his teachers, Jessica and Myra. His vibrant personality was a blend of silliness, intelligence, and a wild spirit. Jayden’s zest for life touched many, and his memory is cherished by his parents, siblings and grandparents.

Upon his passing, Jayden's parents chose to continue his legacy through organ donation. Jayden’s gift of life saved four people.

Did you know that OneLegacy has an amazing group of volunteers, called the OneLegacy Ambassadors, who help us inspire our local communities to say YES to donation, every day?

Last month, we had the incredible privilege of gathering with our OneLegacy Ambassadors for our annual conference. A day filled with connection, purpose, and unwavering dedication to the mission of organ, eye, and tissue donation. 💚

Each of our Ambassadors brings a deeply personal connection to donation, whether as donor family members, recipients, or passionate advocates, and each shares a powerful commitment to honoring the gift of life.

This group of volunteers pours their hearts into sharing their stories, educating our communities, and advocating for those still waiting.

To our Ambassadors: thank you for being the voice of the mission, for standing up for the power of donation, and for reminding the world that every life has the potential to save another.
