EVENT CALENDAR

National DMV Appreciation Month is a time to recognize driver license partners for their support. In addition, driver license staff often help to educate the public on organ, eye and tissue donation by answering their customers’ questions.

We encourage you to take a moment in September to offer a word of gratitude or share your donation and transplantation story with us or your local driver license staff. These individuals prioritize helping the public with their donation questions and registering their decision to give the gift of life. With 99% of Colorado and Wyoming residents joining the donor registry through their local driver license office, these staff are integral to help us continue to save lives through organ, eye and tissue donation.

Join Donate Life Colorado on Saturday, September 10th at UC Health Park in Colorado Springs for a special Donate Life Night with the Rocky Mountain Vibes as they take on the Grand Junction Rockies!

Make sure you get there early to visit our booth and learn more about organ, eye and tissue donation.

National Donor Sabbath is observed annually two weekends before Thanksgiving, from Friday through Sunday. This three-day observance seeks to include the days of worship for major religions practiced in the United States. During National Donor Sabbath, faith leaders from many religions, donor families, transplant recipients, and donation and transplantation professionals participate in services and programs to educate the public about the need for the lifesaving and healing gifts passed to others through transplantation, while also encouraging people to register their decision to be organ, eye and tissue donors.
