National Donate Life Month
Throughout National Donate Life Month (April 1 – 30, 2026), we invite you to join us in our effort to END THE WAIT for more than 100,000 Americans in need of a lifesaving organ transplant – including nearly 700 Nevadans. Together, we have the power to save and heal lives.
This year’s theme uses trees as a symbol of life and connection. Just like trees grow and support each other in a forest, donation connects people – donors, recipients, and their families. Like a tree that grows and stands for generations, a donor’s gift leaves a lasting legacy of hope and life.
Your decision to be an organ, eye and tissue donor gives hope and light to the 100,000 people on the national transplant waiting list who are waiting for a second chance at life.
