“Talking with customers regarding the donation process
reminds me how many people my son helped and how his
heart is still beating due to the choice he made at 15 years old
to be an organ donor. Organ Donation made a devastating
loss a little more bearable because of the donation process.”
Pam HoltmanBemidji DL Exam
“Registering as a donor is an opportunity to
make something good out of a great loss.
Since my nephew has been the recipient of a
donated cornea, I know firsthand that families
could not be more grateful and I urge all to
educate themselves and register as a donor!”
Deb CarlsonDepartment of Motor Vehicles, Town Square“Driver License offices play a vital role in being a conduit for Minnesota residents to make their wishes known about organ and tissue donation. Capturing a person’s desire to be a donor and offering hope to those who need organ and tissue transplants is a very fulfilling contribution toward saving a life.”
