Lifesharing is a federally designated organ procurement organization (OPO) serving San Diego and Imperial Counties in Southern California. They are committed to saving lives through the miracle of organ and tissue donation, helping transplant hundreds of vital organs each year, including hearts, lungs, livers, and kidneys. Lifesharing also recovers tissue for transplantation, improving the quality of life for thousands of patients annually. They provide compassionate support to families during the donation process and are proud to be one of the top performing OPOs in the nation.
In August of 2023, Lifesharing organ donors saved 50 lives through the transplantation of vital organs, coming close to their all-time record of 62 organs transplanted in a single month. Their highly coordinated efforts involve a dedicated team of nurses, surgical coordinators, and family specialists, working simultaneously on multiple cases. Lifesharing's commitment to organ and tissue donation was further highlighted when they joined forces with the nonprofit Transplant Trekkers to unfurl the American flag at Snapdragon Stadium, emphasizing the importance of donation during a historic football match between Manchester United and Wrexham AFC.
