Information for the Families of Donors

The sudden and tragic death of a loved one can be overwhelming. Families who donate organs and tissues not only change the lives of those who receive transplants but they often experience loss and grief differently.
Bereavement Resources & Support Groups

Bereavement Resources & Support Groups

Support groups and bereavement resources below are offered throughout our region. Before attending any of the programs, we encourage you to call contacts listed to confirm meeting times and locations.
Helping Grieving Children

Helping Grieving Children

Children of all ages grieve the death of a loved one. Oftentimes family members assume children are doing fine because they play with their toys, laugh, and seem unfazed by death. Unfortunately, this is the furthest from the truth.
Writing to Transplant Recipients

Writing to Transplant Recipients

While organ and tissue donations are handled as anonymous gifts, families of donors may choose to write to the recipients of their loved one's organs and their family.
