DHR Health Organ Donor Champions

I've witnessed firsthand the challenges my mother faces with her kidneys, and I'm committed to supporting her and others in need by offering my organs after I pass.

I've had family members who have lived to old age thanks to organ donors, I got to cherish many happy moments with my loved ones.

I hope to be able to help anyone that is in need and possibly improve their quality of life. After the loss of a child, I am grateful to be a registered organ donor!

I signed up because, I want to help another person in need of a organ. And being able to help someone even after I'm no longer here is amazing to me.

Because sharing with others is the right thing to do.

To give someone a second chance at life.

I became an organ donor because I witnessed the miraculous transformation of my dad's life. Amidst the despair of his condition, with only the slim hope of a transplant while on ECMO, I saw the extraordinary power of organ donation to bring hope, healing, and new beginnings. Inspired by this profound experience, I'm registered to give others the same chance at life and spread kindness and compassion through the gift of organ donation.

It’s a way to give back to others in need.

As a registered organ donor, I believe in the profound gift of life beyond my own, striving to offer hope and healing to those in need. Being of service to others is deeply ingrained in my purpose on this earth, and organ donation represents a significant way for me to fulfill that commitment.

Paying it forward.

It is easier to take than to give. It's nobler to give than to take. The thrill of taking lasts a day. The thrill of giving lasts a lifetime.--Joan Marques

Working for the transplant institute and attending seminars for the Texas Organ Sharing Alliance (TOSA) has inspired me to do my part in the selfless act of donation. Many individuals in our community are uneducated on the importance and overall information about organ transplantation. As a donor advocate, I can do my part in helping others understand basic questions.

To someday help others in need, giving the gift of life that may lighten the grief of my own family. The need is tremendous and multiple people may be helped.

I would want to provide lifesaving organs to up to eight people, also impact the lives of others with tissue donation.

I want to give someone else the opportunity to enjoy life with their loved ones.

I signed up to be a donor because everyone deserves the chance to live life to the fullest.

I signed up to give my husband a second chance to live a healthy life, I donated my kidney to him on September 27, 2023. This is by far the biggest blessing ever being his PERFECT Match!!

Save lives. Make a difference in someone else's life.

If I can safe a life I will be blessed in heaven. Amen.

To help others.

I chose to become an organ donor about 10 years ago, I feel that if I can extend someone’s life once I’m long gone, I did my part.

To be able to help others in need ones I'm gone.

I have cared for patients in need of an organ for over 15 years. I know firsthand what an impact organ donors make in the lives of recipients and their family. End stage organ disease is a devastating journey that affects the entire family. When I’m done with my life, I’d like to leave a lasting legacy of love, compassion and selfless generosity by giving the gift of life to someone in need.

I just wanted to help people even after I am gone.

My father died due to renal failure and he had been on list for years. I hate seeing others go though what he went through.

I signed up because there is many people on waiting lists to get new organs.

Because an organ donor provided my mother with a kidney. She no longer needs dialysis! One person changed our lives and I would love to do that for someone else!

I won't need my organs when I die, so I will be so happy that they will help other people.

I signed up to be an organ donor because when my mother passed away she saved life’s and gave a woman in Africa the ability to see again.

Because everyone deserves a chance in life.

To share life with others who otherwise cannot have a quality life.

Organ donation is not a tragedy. But it can be a beautiful light in the midst of one.

To save lives.

To know you will save lives, it’s a blessed feeling.

The gift of giving. My dad was an organ donor.

My dad was an organ recipient & I had the opportunity to have him in my life 10 more years. I want to give that to someone else’s daughter too.

My story will not end, I will continue to be a legend!!

The gift of love!

To help save a life.

To help anyone that I can.

To give a chance of good life and hope.
