Today, in partnership with LifeLink of Florida, we raised the Donate Life flag at Lakewood Ranch Medical Center in honor of National Donate Life Month. 💙💚 We paused to recognize donors and their families, celebrate recipients, and stand with the more than 103,000 people nationwide awaiting a life‑saving transplant.

We were especially moved by nurse educator Lisa, whose family has been personally touched by donation as an organ recipient. She shared, “You can never repay the debt of the ultimate sacrifice made by the donor and their family, but you never stop being grateful.”

Following the ceremony, LifeLink joined us with a treat cart throughout the hospital to help spread awareness and start important conversations about organ donation. Thank you to everyone who helped make this meaningful day possible. 💙
