Sometimes, donor families choose to write to recipients to share information about themselves and their loved one. For some donor families, this sharing with the transplant recipients helps them in their grieving process. LifeGift Organ Donation Center supports written correspondence between donor families and transplant recipients.
All correspondence is anonymous and identities are kept confidential.
If you would like to write to the transplant recipients, you may send a greeting card or a letter. When writing to the transplant recipients, you may choose to include your loved one's name. Information about your family such as marital status, children, and grandchildren may also be included. Since the religion of the transplant recipient's family is unknown, please consider this if you are including religious comments. When closing your card or letter, you may sign your first name.
