    In the U.S. today is National Donor Day. It is an opportunity to unite with others to raise awareness about the lifesaving benefits of organ, eye and tissue donation.

    If you plan on posting to social media or vocally encourage conversation with others today about organ donation, don’t forget to emphasize the importance of discussing your wishes with loved ones.

    My son received a heart and double lung transplant. I appreciate a day reserved for raising awareness but every day when I look at my son, I want to shout out to the world how organ donation saved his life.

    Throughout the year I openly share his story through words, pictures and videos. How do you spread the importance of organ donation on Donor Day or on any day of the year? Share your advocacy with us.

    Awesome reminder, Colleen! I am a registered donor myself. Even if it’s only my eyes or something, it makes a difference. ❤️
