Most of all, to those of you registered as donors and to our donor and recipient families. THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
Colby Foundation Is this an idea whose time has come? With November being National Marrow Awareness month, it is cause to think. Would this help people decide to be living organ and tissue donors? Would it ease things for those who have already decided?

Colby Foundation November 13-15 is National Donor Sabbath. Use the link below to find out more and to learn how your faith community might take part. Donation and transplant professionals join faith communities and focus on the life-saving and life-affirming gifts that can be passed to others through organ, tissue and blood stem cell... donation. Faith leaders participate in services and programs to increase awareness of donation and transplantation and the critical need for donors. Donation is viewed by most religions as an act of compassion and generosity. Temples, churches, mosques, and other places of worship observe the National Donor Sabbath in their own ways.
