Leave a Legacy
During National Donate Life Month in April, we honor the individuals who have given the remarkable gift of life through organ, eye, and tissue donation. We also celebrate the countless lives saved and healed because of a donor’s selfless generosity.
This year’s theme highlights trees as a symbol of life, strength, and connection. Just as trees grow together and support one another in a forest, donation creates enduring connections between donors, recipients, and their families. And like a tree that stands strong for generations, a donor’s gift leaves a lasting legacy—one rooted in hope, renewal, and life.

Women in STEM: Amy Lin, MD
Medical Director
Utah Lions Eye Bank
Dr. Amy Lin was born into a science-minded family. Her father was a physician and her mother a pharmacist, so they always encouraged Amy’s scientific interests and emphasized the importance of academics and doing well in school. Both parents were immigrants; wanting Amy to have every opportunity to succeed, they knew staying ahead of the curve with her studies was key. Amy considers her mother to be her first role model. She came to the United States from Taiwan to attend pharmacy school. Looking back, Amy has a great appreciation for her efforts and calls her a “trailblazer.”
Thanks Dr. Lin for all you do for the Utah Lions Eye Bank!
