Donate Life Arizona

On Monday, Phoenix Children's welcomed us to raise the Donate Life flag 💙💚

This flag honors the incredible generosity of organ donor heroes. It feels especially meaningful this week during National Pediatric Transplant Week, as we come together to end the pediatric transplant waiting list and honor pediatric donors and their families.

Adison Leigh Rayburn wholeheartedly understood the power of sharing life. In fact, she registered twice as a donor before she passed.

Her parents, Rob and Shannon, now share the impact she made and honor her legacy by sharing her story through artwork that represents her heartbeat and the life she shared with others. 🌈

Looking at Gracie Hoskins’ big smile, you would never know she’s had to overcome health hurdles since the day she was born.

"At just a few months old, she coded in my arms. Doctors came in and they saved her. She was listed for a transplant the next day,” says Blessing Hoskins, her mother. Eight days later, Gracie received a lifesaving heart transplant.

Today marks the start of National Pediatric Transplant Week. We celebrate the lives saved, like Gracie's, and continue to fight for the children waiting on their second chance.

While the Donate Life flag always flies outside of our office, we took time this week to host our own flag-raising for our staff. Joined by Lisa Leger Scibetta, a volunteer struggling with lung failure, we were grounded in our why: to save lives. 💙

It all started 40 years ago, but just six years ago we relocated our main office to Tempe. Since moving into our new home, we've welcomed and celebrated ...

💙 Donor families and recipients who remind us why we do what we do
🎉 Volunteers that back our mission
💚 Partnering organizations, such as Pappas Kids Schoolhouse Foundation and Ollin Yoliztli Dance Academy
😎 Reggie's Jenga skills

We might be biased, but it's going great 🤩

Thank you isn't enough. More than 95% of organ and tissue donor registrations come from an Arizona Department of Transportation office.

That's why we raised the flag at Glendale MVD last week and will continue to sport blue and green throughout April. These partners make second chances possible 💚
