March is National Ethics Awareness Month, a time for individuals and organizations to reflect on the ethics they adhere to and how they can improve upon them. Please see EBAA's Principles of Professional Conduct for a refresher on our ethics guidances.

March is Women's History Month. EBAA and eye banking and cornea transplantation is lucky to be filled with impressive, trailblazing women.

One such woman is Marianne Price Ph.D., of the Cornea Research Foundation of America. The first woman (and Valedictorian) to graduate from the University of Notre Dame with an engineering degree, she is also a mother of four, member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, on the Editorial Board of Cornea, and the recipient of EBAA's 2025 R. Townley Paton Award - the association's highest honor for physicians.

As we close out Black History Month, we join our partners at Association for Multicultural Affairs in Transplantation in stressing that the history, culture, and contributions of Black Americans should be honored all year long - not just during February.

Black Americans are a significant part of the donor registry - committing to giving the gift of sight and life.

Due to increasingly sophisticated fake IDs, iconic Philadelphia dive bar, Dirty Franks, has decided customers must be 25+ to enter, as reported by the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The "final straw" was an incredibly realistic ID - with a photo of Ben Franklin.

While we don't condone underage drinking, or fake IDs, we're thrilled to see that Ben is a registered donor!

Be like your Founding Father and register as an eye, organ, and tissue donor at: RegisterMe.org.

Last week, EBAA released the 2025 Year in Review.

An annual publication, it represents the work, accomplishments, progress, opportunities, and challenges that occurred over the past calendar year - along with the direction we'll be taking in the future.

Eye banking statistics for 2025 will be available in their own separate forthcoming publication, the Eye Banking Statistical Report.

There is much to be proud of from 2025. We thank our members for their selfless dedication to the restoration of sight. Although it can't all be documented, their individual efforts continue to transform countless lives for the better.

The 2025 Year in Review can be read on our website:

EBAA joins with the Association for Multicultural Affairs in Transplantation and the rest of the donation and transplantation community in observing and celebrating Black History Month.

This month recognizes and honors Black history, culture, and the lasting impact of African Americans in the US.

2026 marks the 100th anniversary of paying tribute to Black Americans who have shaped and strengthened the nation.

Black History Month is also a call to action. Along with AMAT, EBAA works to amplify Black voices, address disparities, and build trust across the donation and transplantation community.
