Donation begins with a conversation

Together we can give hope and create new connections

The Talk Donation initiative gives voice to the diverse American Indian communities in the Upper Midwest inspired to learn, share and support the healing power of organ donation and transplantation.

Lead by LifeSource, community partners, government agencies and research partners, this initiative aims to support the health and vitality of communities in which Native people feel inspired to save and heal lives.
