"My father’s selfless gift allowed others to continue their journey, and that legacy fills me with pride and gratitude. Even more profoundly, my family was given the priceless gift of time—precious years with my brother—because of a lung transplant. Words can never fully capture how deeply thankful I am for the miracle of life and the hope it brings." - Mary McWilliams, donor and recipient family member and Live On Nebraska Senior HR Generalist ❤️

For nearly a decade, classmates of pediatric organ donor Beckett Arp have been giving back to the donation community in honor of their friend.

Those close to him have always described Beckett as kind, caring and even a little ornery. To honor his memory, the community of Friend, NE and Beckett's classmates have hosted many give-back events for the community and those on the transplant waiting list, organized fishing tournaments to provide scholarships for Beckett's graduating class, and created holiday ornaments for donor families.

The ornament project started back when the students were in fourth grade, they are now juniors. This year, nearing the 10-year anniversary of Beckett's donation, his classmates continue to spread kindness by creating beautiful ornaments that will be given to Live On Nebraska's pediatric donor families from 2025.

Beckett's mom, Erika, says her favorite part about doing this project is the interactions a few of the students have had with donor families.

"One of their favorite parts is not only making the ornaments, but over the years a few of them have received letters from those who were given an ornament! They love knowing they have touched someone else’s life and made a difference by bringing them joy during a difficult time." ❤️

"Donation is a gift in my life because....of all the things that have happened in the last almost 10 years! Just in the past three years, Linda and I have been blessed with three great-grandchildren!! We've also been able to travel! Without the generous gift of my new heart, I would have never seen these cuties!!" - John Rod, heart recipient 🩵

"P-H Productions is a wedding and entertainment company specializing in DJs, photo mirrors and indoor fireworks. My wife and I have owned the company for almost 7 years and have been in the wedding industry for over 20. We are professional, experienced and provide our clients full control over their timeline and vibe of the day.

In January of 2021, I donated a kidney to my wife's best friend Christina. It was one of the most rewarding and fulfilling acts I have been able to perform. I was truly honored to do that for a friend. In the wake of the donation I have been more self-conscious and cognizant of those around me and the situations they may find themselves in. We provide special discounts to those in the organ donation community and are always looking to assist with our business anyway we can to spread the word for organ donation." 🎤🎶💜

SunFlare Brands Company is a candle and craft company created by Rodney Bennett with the mission to craft joy and opportunity through creativity. With four unique candle brands, SunFlare products are handcrafted and locally made with purpose.

"Receiving a transplant didn’t just save my life; it shifted my entire purpose. It pushed me to build a company that could spark impact and hope for others walking similar journeys. That’s why Codename: CANDLES, one of SunFlare’s flagship brands, is deeply rooted in giving back and making an impact.

Each collection in this brand donates a portion of its proceeds to a nonprofit or charity that represents the cause behind the collection. Our inaugural collection, the Hope Weaver, uplifts the message of organ donation and transplant awareness, with a portion of every candle supporting Live On Nebraska. Our Peace of Mind Collection brings attention to mental health awareness and supports Community Alliance. Through these collections, we’re blending creativity with purpose, making products that shine a little light while helping lift entire communities." 🕯️💛

Ella & Jacks Home Bakery is a small business run by Michaela Bissonette (and her two littles) with lots of help from her mom, Christina Nelson. We specialize mostly in custom decorated sugar cookies but we bake about anything.

Organ donation is a really big part of our Valentine's Day sales. Every year, sales that come from Valentine’s Day go to an organization in honor of our favorite “Gold” heart, James Bissonette who donated his heart in 2021. The first year, we donated over $5,000 to Live on Nebraska from our sales. This was a huge event. The next year, we raised enough money to sponsor a $1,000 scholarship in honor of James. Last year, the money went to help support Christmas presents for local children!" 🍪🩷
