Organ Donation
Growing the Garden of Life through Organ Donation
To our organ donors and their families, saying thank you seems a small gesture compared to your selfless gift. Because of you, others are given a second chance at living life to its fullest.
Add Your Loved One to the Gift of Life Wall
For loved ones of those who chose the selfless act of organ and tissue donation be sure to add their name to the gift of life wall.

Become a Donor
At Stormont Vail, we work with the Midwest Transplant Network to provide hope and healing to patients through organ and tissue donation.
Every individual has the right to donate. You can authorize to be an organ, eye and tissue donor by signing up with your state registry at your local DMV. Or, if you’re a Kansas or Missouri resident, register online through the Midwest Transplant Network.
