  • Repost from @nicolewarnegolf • Yesterday, we lost a beautiful soul. If you knew my dad, Jimmy , he was selfless and giving. This week his organs will be donated to lives who need them. While we lost an amazing person, he possibly brought life back to so many people, and gave second chances to families. His life will be lived out through many souls, and parts of him will go all over the country, likely to places he never got to travel to. We love you, Dad. Ps: Start hitting the driving range, because I’m coming for a $1000 a hole Match Play round when I get to see you again.
  • Join us in celebrating Latino Heritage Month! Donation and transplantation happens in the Latino community all year long, but we are excited to take this time to highlight the incredible impact and share these stories.

  • Patrick was a kind, generous and loving young man whose life was cut short in August 2019, following a tragic car accident during an Arizona monsoon storm. He was just 40 years old. Patrick was a glass artist who made beautiful Christmas ornaments, jewelry and more. Patrick would have been happy to know that his liver and kidneys were given to needy recipients, and his pancreas was used for research. He is missed beyond words by his family, but knowing he was able to help total strangers is a source of peace.⁠ ⁠ Register in Patrick's honor at the link in our bio. #DonateLife

  • Karl was such a giving and loving person. Even in high school he was a protector of the weaker classmates. All through his life he was there for others. Yes, he had his struggles, but was an example of a giver and not a taker. He loved all his family members and would be an encouraging influence when needed. Karl left us too early, but through Donate Life Arizona he has given sight to two individuals. Isn’t that wonderful? I’m sure his other donated items are helping those that need them. Oh, Karl we miss and love you so much. You live on in many other recipients of your donations. Thank you, Karl!⁠ ⁠ Register in Karl's honor at the link in our bio! #DonateLife #organdonation #giftofsight #corneadonation

  • Just when the caterpillar thought her life was over she began to fly. 🐛🦋 today marks 6 months. I have felt so many extreme emotions - excitement, relief, joy, gratitude, happiness, pride, love, confusion, tiredness, pain, grief, and guilt over the months. I have had a rough go dealing with survivors guilt especially on holidays this year when I know a family is celebrating this time without their loved one. Today is no different. I will celebrate these past six months of laughter and life with my family that I have been blessed with and I will shed a few quiet and heartbreaking tears for my donor who I am undeniably thankful for and her family. 💙💚 #whatliftsyou #donatelife #livertransplantsurvivor #organdonation ( #📷 @kate_sarten )
  • Join Donate Life Arizona for a Haiku contest as we celebrate donation awareness in multicultural communities.

We encourage you to also use these hashtags: #spreadgenerositynotgerms #donatelife #multiculturaldonorawareness. We will draw several winners at the end of August. 🌸

  • "As a social worker, I always look for my “why.” Always trying to find a way to do more and be more for others and for my family. When I was presented by my doctor with a planned cesarean birth, I knew right then I wanted to donate. Donating my placenta, which I would have discarded anyway, allowed for healing of wounds and helped in other’s medical procedures. This is my why!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Donor Network of Arizona was very pleasant to work with and was so kind during an exciting and caring time. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ During this crazy time in life, let us all stick together for the good! If you ever considered donation, there is never a better time than now. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Weston wants to say thank you too! 🤗 donatelifeaz" ( #📷 Thank you @kayla_renee_11 for sharing your experience with birth tissue donation!) #placentadonation #csection #happymom #strongmama

  • "It was 1 o'clock in the morning on January 13, and you never forget that day, it's like their whole new birthday. We got the call and they said 'we have a good match.'...Instead of hoping minute-to-minute or hour-to-hour, you get to hope year-to-year." ⁠ ⁠ Watch Dylan McQueen's story at the link in our bio! #DonateLife #hearttransplant #heartrecipient

  • "My husband, Stephen W Peterson, passed away suddenly in January 2008. He was an organ donor. In the chaos of all that happened, the one thing certain was that I would consent to give any part of his body to help others. That is who he was – always willing to help others. His donation helped several with eyesight and helped many burn victims. He was a proud daddy to twin girls, Emelia and Savannah. They loved and adored their DaDa. His memories live on through his girls, friends and family. We love and miss you so much! He was 42 years young! Give the gift that keeps your memory alive!"⁠ ⁠ Register in Stephen's honor at the link in our bio. ❤️ #DonateLife
