Join LifeLink — Join a Life Saving Team!
About LifeLink
More than four decades ago, a visionary group of innovators, led by renowned nephrologist Dr. Dana Shires, made a life-changing commitment—to save lives through organ and tissue donation. From that bold beginning,
LifeLink Foundation was established – founded with heart, purpose, and a mission that still guides us today.
What started as a nonprofit with big dreams has grown into a vision-driven organization of more than
700 dedicated professionals across west-central Florida, Georgia, parts of South Carolina, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands.

To honor donors and save lives through organ and tissue donation.
