Dear Donor

ЗА ТОЗИ ПОДКАСТ 🔗

Each year at UK HealthCare, an average of 250 people are given a second chance at life through the miracle of organ transplantation. This lifesaving work depends wholly on the generosity of donors and their families. These are the people who make the selfless decision to give the gift of life.
We asked our transplant recipients to write letters sharing their experiences. These letters – read by organ recipients and others and featured in an installation called “Dear Donor” – include the words they wish they could say to their donors. Their words are intimate glimpses into the profound impact a
donor’s sacrifice can have.
At any time, nearly 1,000 Kentuckians await a lifesaving organ transplant. Without donors, organ transplantation is not possible. To learn more or to register as a donor, please visit donatelifeky.org.
