About Donate Life

The joint power behind donate life

Donate Life℠ is the national brand for the cause of donation that aims to motivate the public to register as organ, eye and tissue donors and manages the National Donate Life Registry at RegisterMe.org. As part of the National Registry, Donate Life Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota are state-based donor registry websites managed by LifeSource.

Over the past 25 years, Donate Life America and the Donate Life Community have registered 147 million organ, eye and tissue donors in the United States – more than 58% of the adult population.

Our Partnership

LifeSource is designated as one of 56 organ procurement organizations (OPO) in the United States – each with its own designated service area – to facilitate the organ donation and transplantation process. We serve the second largest geographical region, focusing on Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and portions of western Wisconsin. We are proud to be an authorized partner of Donate Life America and promote donor registration – a decision that saves lives.

Our Public Awareness Campaign

Check the Box

Our award-winning public awareness campaign “Check the Box” features real people from our communities who are personally impacted by donation and transplantation, as well as supporters who believe in registering as a donor.

With this campaign we aim to spark life-saving conversations about donation and transplantation and promote the message that anyone can register as a donor – a decision that saves and heals lives.
