Nebraska Institutions recently hosted the Gift of Life Donor Sabbath, an event aimed at raising awareness about organ and tissue donation. The gathering provided a platform for interfaith leaders to discuss the critical need for donors and the profound impact organ donations have on recipients’ lives.

One speaker shared a personal connection to the cause, revealing that two family members had received life-saving organ donations. This experience, she said, deeply motivated her to support and advocate for the cause.

Organizers emphasized the importance of celebrating the gift of life and encouraged attendees to consider becoming organ donors. The event highlighted the ongoing need for donors to help save lives and offer hope to those in critical need of transplants.
