We are extremely proud of Sam and all the outstanding work she has done — and continues to do — to support donation.

🌱 After earning a bachelor’s degree in medical illustration, Sam Dewey witnessed firsthand how the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the mental health crisis in Utah—an observation that changed the trajectory of her career. Today, the MSW alumna brings compassion and expertise to organ transplant patients as they navigate life’s most profound transitions.

April is National Donate Life Month so Let Life Sing!
In 2025, let life sing! Birds are known across many cultures as one of the most welcomed and visible signs of spring. They represent both new beginnings and visits from loved ones who have passed away. The yearly return of birds and their songs offer us a sense of peace and hope.
