In Oklahoma, approximately 800 of our friends, neighbors and loved ones are waiting for a lifesaving or life enhancing transplant. Organ, eye and tissue transplants offer patients another chance to live a healthy and happy life – and that hope it is only possible when you make the compassionate choice to register your decision to be a donor.
The anchor represents hope, resilience and a place of refuge. As we come together during Donate Life Month, we invite you to remember this: we can only navigate life’s challenges and embark on a journey toward healing together.
One person can save up to eight lives and enhance 75 more. By registering as a donor and sharing your decision with your family, you bring hope to all those waiting for the gift of life.
UPDATE: Jhett received his second heart transplant on July 7, 2018, and is doing great thanks to a selfless donor.
The waiting list continues to grow, every 9 minutes another name is added to the list. Every day 17 Americans die waiting for an organ transplant. With the critical need for transplants, it is crucial that the Foundation be able to continuously support LifeShare’s efforts.
The LifeShare Foundation is dedicated to raising awareness, providing ongoing support for those touched by organ donation and advancing research to honor the gift of life.
