Lauren’s Donation

CEO

Me, Lauren, & Susan

Dana, Lauren, and I stopped by the LifeSource office today. The reason we were there was because my sweet little niece,  Lauren, decided to raise funds for Lifesource for her birthday.  Since her birthday was so soon after Christmas, she felt she didn’t need any more presents for herself. She has personally seen the benefits of organ donation and wanted to spread the word amongst her friends. She told her friends and family she preferred donations to LifeSource in lieu of gifts.

It was so exciting, a bunch of staff members gathered to hear Lauren tell her story. Lauren was able to raise $400.00 all on her own! We got a picture with the CEO, Susan, in front of one of the donor quilts. The quilts have pictures of loved ones that have passed away and given the gift of life to others by donation. Such a nice tribute to true heroes.
