In recognition of National Donate Life Month, we recently gathered with SSM Health Saint Louis University Hospital to honor the lasting legacy of organ, eye, and tissue donation. We were inspired by stories shared by donor families, living donors, and those who have received the gift of life. We are profoundly grateful to SSM Health for their partnership and for ensuring that the gift of donation is available to the communities we serve.

“I may never get to thank the donor families that saved my life, but I will be forever grateful. The precious gifts I have received have truly been gifts I will never take for granted or forget. These gifts have gotten to accompany me on many cherished memories I never would have had without them. I look forward to the journey I now get to embark on, and I'm full of so much hope, gratitude, and spirit. Thanks to my donors, I get to take my kids roller-skating, biking, to the movies, on vacations, and even to the boring stuff like doctor's appointments. The point is, I am still here to do and experience these things with them.”

On a typical day in October of 2022, Jenn went to her in-laws' house to pick up her two daughters. While waiting around, she stood with her family at their fire pit as her father-in-law added more gas to the fire, when suddenly flames shot up and hit Jen directly. She managed to get on the ground, but the fire kept reigniting around her legs. Her father-in-law put the flames out by jumping on Jen and getting burned himself in the process.

Jen and her father-in-law were taken to the hospital, where they both received skin grafts. She spent two weeks recovering from her burns, which covered her body from her face all the way down to her legs.

Prior to her accident, Jen wasn’t familiar with the power of tissue donation and how it can be used to heal lives. Now, three years later, Jen’s body has healed, and she no longer experiences pain from her burns.

Thank you to Jen and Gift of Life Michigan and Donate Life America for sharing this story with us!

In recognition of Volunteer Appreciation Week, we want to take a moment to thank our dedicated volunteers. Whether it is providing office assistance, tabling events in the community, or sharing their personal connection to organ, eye, and tissue donation, our volunteers continuously show up in support of our mission.

Last weekend, volunteers joined us for our monthly blanket making. These blankets are hand-tied by volunteers and then placed over donors before they give the Gift of Life. The blankets are then sent back to the donor’s family as the last item that was with their loved one.

"My husband's death was very unexpected. He was a young 72. He skied all winter and and we walked every morning and hiked most weekends. He had no indication of heart problems before his fatal heart attack. Sometimes death brings out the worst of families. For us it brought out the best. We had a blended family with mine your's and ours six wonderful children.

Everyone was devastated by our loss of this most amazing man, but one of the bright spots of our loss was tissue donation. I didn't realize how many people can benefit. I recommend it to anyone who goes through death of someone you love."

This National Donate Life Month, we joined Baptist Memorial Hospital - Paragould for a flag raising to honor the selfless gift of life made possible by donors and their families. It was our privilege to hear the stories of liver recipient Johnna and donor wife Dana, who honored the legacy of her husband, Rory. We sincerely thank Baptist Memorial for their commitment to saving and healing lives through organ, eye, and tissue donation. 💙💚

"Chloe, 17, was a junior in high school when she was struck head on by an impaired driver. Chloe was a registered organ donor. More than 50 family and friends participated in her honor walk on Jan. 28.

She was a bright, beautiful, full-of-life, fun, caring human and shining star who donated five organs as well as tissue, corneas and other items for research.

The huge void left in our lives by the tragedy, has been somewhat tempered knowing the good she continues to provide through her decision to be an organ donor. The support provided to her family by the OPO personnel at the hospital and subsequently has been very much appreciated and worthwhile."

"My son, Cary, had a positive attitude no matter what was going on. He loved his family. He talked about being a cop to save people. He was able to save 3 people through organ donation and his liver went to research. He lives on through them."

“March 31, 2025: The day we heard the words no parent is ever prepared for.
It also happened to be the first day of Donate Life Month. At the time, that meant nothing to us.

Over the next 180 days, Grace spent 155 of them in the hospital — fighting, waiting, surviving.

Waiting for answers.
Waiting for healing.
Waiting for a second chance.

We didn’t know then how much Donate Life would come to mean to us. We didn’t know our story would become part of it.

But because of that gift … she’s here.

And now, she’s home — growing, playing and thriving in ways we once only prayed for.
March 31 will always be the day our world stopped — and the beginning of everything it would take to keep her here.

Please consider registering as an organ donor. One decision can save up to eight lives.”
