πŸ–€βœ¨ Representation matters. Ambassador Siouxniqua Smith, a kidney recipient, speaking with students at James S. Rickards High School, sharing her personal journey and a message that hits close to home.

Kidney failure disproportionately affects multiethnic populations, and increasing organ donor registration can save lives, families, neighborhoods, and futures. Hearing this truth from someone who has lived it makes the message real, urgent and deeply personal.

These conversations matter. Education matters. And the choice to register as an organ donor can make a lifechanging difference for multiethnic communities. πŸ’š

Our Story

LifeQuest is a non-profit organization that is privileged and honored to serve and support Florida’s donation and transplantation community and help those in need of life-saving and life-enhancing transplants. It is the individuals in need who motivate us and the selfless donors who humble us. We are a founding member of Donate Life Florida, a state-wide alliance of organ, tissue and eye recovery programs and other organizations interested in encouraging life-saving donation and increasing donor designations.

LifeQuest is one of the nation’s 58 non-profit organ procurement organizations (OPOs). As an OPO, we partner with each hospital in our 36-county region of northern Florida to facilitate the donation process, to ensure that the family of each potential donor is compassionately offered the option to give the Gift of Life, and to honor all individuals’ donor directives. With more than 113,000 people on the national organ transplant waiting list, including more than 5,400 in Florida, our vision is for a transplant for every patient in need...
