August is National Minority Donor Awareness Month (NMDAM) – a collaborative effort to save & improve the quality of life of diverse communities by creating a positive culture for organ, eye & tissue donation. Why is NMDAM needed? 60% of national transplant waiting list patients are from multicultural communities. The need for donation and transplant is more pronounced in minority communities where disproportionately higher rates of diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease contribute to organ failure, especially kidney failure. You can find resources to share and read more about NMDAM at nmag1.org 💙💚 #DonateLife #NMDAM2024 NMDAM is a collaborative effort of the National Organ, Eye and Tissue Donation Multicultural Action Group (NMAG).

As a Product Owner with a logistics background, I find joy in using technology to help people solve their challenges. #RealTimeGPSTracking is just one of the many tools! Track the cargo, not the truck!
Following a successful Association of Organ Procurement Organizations (AOPO) conference in San Antonio, Texas, I had the privilege of attending a productive meeting at United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS). Whenever I am at headquarters, I make sure to walk through the National Donor Memorial, a must-see for anyone in or around the Richmond, VA area! #OrganTransplant #AOPO #Transplant #Healthcare #UNOS

Energized and inspired after attending my first UNOS Primer at their headquarters! As the new Learning and Development Manager for Lifesharing, being introduced to a central cog of organ donation and transplantation feels like a true privilege. Thank you, United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), for the warm welcome. UNOS's vision of 'A life-saving transplant for everyone in need' and their mission to 'Unite and strengthen the donation and transplant community to save lives' deeply resonate with me. Seeing these principles in action has reinforced the profound impact of our collective mission. I'm also grateful to Lifesharing | A Donate Life Organization for investing in my growth and empowering me to contribute meaningfully to this vital cause. Excited to apply these insights as I work towards making a difference in organ procurement and transplantation. #UNOSPrimer2024 #OrganDonation #ProfessionalDevelopment
