Today we celebrate the women who save, heal and change lives.

Women who serve.
Women who lead.
Women who say “yes” to organ, eye and tissue donation.
Women who receive their second chances at life.
Women who are still waiting with hope.

On International Women’s Day, we honor every woman's strength and the powerful legacy they create.

"On December 18, 2025, my life was forever changed by an extraordinary act of love. Without hesitation and without being asked, my mother chose to become my living kidney donor. The woman who gave me life once again gave me a second chance at it. It was the most meaningful gift I could ever receive.

This was not my first transplant journey. Nearly 20 years earlier, I received a kidney from my deceased donor, Lianne. Her selfless gift gave me decades of life to grow, to build a family, to serve others, and to discover my purpose. As I prepared for surgery this time, I reflected deeply on everything her 'yes' had made possible. Her legacy lives on through every milestone I have reached.

Going through transplantation again was deeply emotional. This time, I understood the gravity of the moment in a way I hadn’t before. I knew that a second chance is never guaranteed. Over the years, I have lost many friends and children who were waiting for a transplant – people with dreams, futures and families who loved them. Carrying their memory gave this experience even greater meaning.

On the night before surgery, I felt both overwhelming gratitude and a profound sense of responsibility. Gratitude to the two donors – one living, one deceased – who made my life possible. Responsibility to live fully, love deeply and honor those who never received the chance I was given. Today, I am especially thankful for one of the greatest blessings of my life: being a dad. That joy exists because someone once said 'yes' to donation – and because my mother had the courage to do the same.

My mother and I are committed to advocating for organ and tissue donation, because one “yes” can change everything. We share our story to help others understand the power of living donation and the lasting impact one selfless decision can have on countless lives." 💙💚 Thank you, Edward, for sharing your story with us!

“This job has helped me grow exponentially, both personally and professionally. I’ve been lucky enough to have been with Infinite Legacy since graduating from college and it has helped teach me life skills beyond work, for which I am grateful. I’m glad that I get to contribute to mission-driven work every day. It’s hard to not to feel a connection to this mission when you are around so many people whose lives have been changed by it.

I continue to be inspired by the stories of people whose lives have been saved and healed thanks to organ, eye and tissue donation, and it is a privilege to share these stories to educate the community about the importance of donation. Public education may require sharing statistics, facts and information about the donation process, but it starts with making people care – by showing them the impact that organ, eye and tissue donation has on real people, every day.

Our teams move mountains to make these donations happen, from educating communities about the importance of donation, to approaching families at the worst moments of their lives and the clinical work of facilitating lifesaving recoveries thanks to generous donors and their families. So much work goes into it, but it is all worth it for the lives that are saved. Infinite Legacy gives me the opportunity to make a real, positive difference.” – Adam, Supervisor, Communications & Marketing
