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.

While we're all running around doing holiday shopping this hashtag , we think about Danny Torres, an Eye Donation Month Everyday Hero and tissue courier for Baton Rouge Regional Eye Bank.

Danny spends his days doing a different type of running - transporting ocular tissue for life-transforming corneal transplant surgeries.

Danny is known to step up in a pinch, and literally go the extra mile to help facilitate a vision-restoring procedure.

We are grateful for Danny and all the others working to hashtag worldwide.

Be an Everyday Hero yourself by registering as a donor at RegisterMe.org.

On this day of gratitude, we are thankful for all the Everyday Heroes who contribute to the gift of sight: donors and their families, eye bankers, corneal surgeons, and champions of vision restoration.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Every kid's dream is to be a superhero, and AJ Smullen certainly achieved that.

Although his life was short, his impact was immeasurable; AJ’s donations saved five lives through his participation in the Donate Life Program, including giving the gift of sight to another individual.

We're happy to show AJ in true superhero form, thanks to the artwork of bilateral cornea recipient and professional comic book artist, Phil Hester.

Thank you to AJ's family and the Lions Eye Bank of the Northeast for sharing his story in our Eye Donation Month Everyday Heroes challenge.

To see others who go a superhero "makeover" see our website, RestoreSight.org.

Be an Every Day hero like AJ by registering as a donor at: RegisterMe.org.
