2nd Annual Impact Summit

The 2025 Impact Summit is all about Empowering Communities: Sharing Stories, Building Knowledge, and Inspiring Action on Donation.

At the summit, you’ll:

• Hear real stories & facts about donation
• Learn how to talk with family & community
• Connect with healthcare pros & neighbors
• Gain tools to take action & make a difference

This one-day event is designed to initiate meaningful conversations, foster connections, and inspire impactful change.

Info: Testimonial from someone directly impacted by donation, illustrating the eternal impact of the gift of life.

Info: Community voices share how to build trust and raise awareness in underserved populations. Includes discussion of cultural humility and access to information.

Info: Small groups use case studies to explore barriers to donation. Discussions will focus on myths, fears, and knowledge gaps in donation across communities, as well as cultural and educational influences on decision-making.

Info: Panel discussion that brings together donor families, health care teams, and Family Support Specialists to share honest reflections on their experiences with organ donation. Through personal stories and open dialogue, the panel will explore what they wish they had known—the questions they didn’t think to ask, the moments that shaped their understanding, and the opportunities for greater connection and clarity.

Info: Equip attendees with practical tools and resources to start meaningful donation conversations—at home, in the workplace, or in the community. Whether you're a healthcare professional, community leader, or passionate advocate, you'll leave prepared to turn your support for donation into impactful action.

Info: Join us immediately after the Summit for a brief gathering to learn more about the Donor Family Memorial currently being planned at Thrive on King and how you can be part of this meaningful tribute.
