We were honored to host a flag signing dinner at the LifeGift Houston office as we kicked off our journey to the 2026 Transplant Games in Denver. ✨

The Transplant Games are the world’s largest celebration of life and hope, bringing people together from across the nation to honor the courageous donor families whose selfless decisions made life possible.

We were especially proud to partner with LifeGift Ambassador of Hope volunteer Amy Frackowiak, who leads Team Texas!

Every signature on the flag represents a story worth celebrating. 💚💙

LifeGift is incredibly proud to celebrate Amarillo High School’s SODA chapter and the meaningful impact they’re making in their community. Their dedication to spreading awareness about organ, eye, and tissue donation continues to inspire those around them.

Recently, Donate Life Texas honored Amarillo High School with the 2025 SODA: Student Organ Donation Advocates - SODA National Texas Campus Challenge Award, recognizing their chapter as the top performing SODA group in the state. This achievement speaks to their passion and strong commitment to education and increasing donor registrations. ✨🥳

We’re also so proud of our LifeGift team who help make this impact possible - especially Barbara VerWey for her support of the chapter, and Yolanda Becker, MD, vice president and chief medical officer, for her leadership and service on the SODA National Board.

Keep up the amazing work, Amarillo High School. We’re so proud of you! 👏

“Funeral directors and morticians serve families at one of the most vulnerable times in their lives,” says Meg Parks, LifeGift manager of donation services relations. “Their compassion, professionalism and steady presence help families focus on remembrance and healing. On National Funeral Directors and Morticians Appreciation Day, we recognize their extraordinary commitment to honoring lives with dignity and care.”

LifeGift is deeply grateful for the funeral home professionals who show such care, respect, and commitment in their work every day. Through their compassion and support, they help guide families during difficult times and play an important role in supporting the communities they serve. Their partnership truly makes a lasting impact. 💙💚
