As the only tissue recovery agency located in the Rio Grande Valley we are proud to honor the traditions that shape who we are.
This fall, our team will create a Día de los Mu***os altar as a tribute to Hispanic culture and in remembrance of the donors and families who give the gift of healing through tissue donation.
We are honored to celebrate and share these traditions with our community.

60% of patients on the national transplant waiting list are from multicultural communities. The need for donation and transplant is more pronounced in minority communities where disproportionately higher rates of diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease contribute to organ failure, especially kidney failure.

August is National Minority Donor Awareness Month (NMDAM) – a collaborative effort to save and improve the quality of life of diverse communities by creating a positive culture for organ, eye and tissue donation.

You can find resources to share and read more about NMDAM at nmag1.org and DonateLifeTexas.org 💙💚

NMDAM is a collaborative effort of the National Organ, Eye and Tissue Donation Multicultural Action Group (NMAG).

There’s no guidebook for grief like this.

To the parents, the families, the friends: we don’t have the right words.
We’re not even sure there are any.

But here’s what we do know...

You are not alone.

Even those of us who never knew your loved ones are mourning them.

Their lives mattered. Their stories mattered.

And their memory will not be forgotten.

We’re heartbroken with you. We’re standing with you.

We’re holding you close, the only way we know how:

Together. As Texans.

Father's Day can be a time of joy for some, and a time of reflection for others.

However you are marking today, we're sending love to all those thinking about what organ donation has meant to them and their family today.

More than 50,000 flags. More than 50,000 stories of hope.

Since 2006, the Donate Life flag has flown at hospitals, funeral homes, DMVs, State Houses, and businesses across the country - each one honoring a donor and their family’s incredible gift.

Today and every day, we see these flags and remember:
• The donors who said yes to giving life
• The families who honored their loved one’s wishes
• The recipients who got second chances
• The communities that celebrate this gift together

Every flag tells a story. Every story matters. Every gift changes everything. 💙💚

This Memorial Day, we pause to honor the brave individuals who gave everything for our country and those who made one final act of service through donation.

Corporal Benjamin S. Kopp, a member of the 75th Army Ranger Regiment, saved six of his fellow soldiers in Afghanistan and, after being mortally wounded, saved four more lives through the gift of organ donation.

The Fallen Soldier statue at the National Donor Memorial stands in honor of military heroes like Corporal Kopp, whose courage lives on in the lives they touched through organ, eye, and tissue donation.

Today, and every day, we remember their sacrifice and their legacy. 💙💚
