It’s amazing to think one person can save up to 8 lives through organ donation and provide healing for more than 75 through tissue donation.
On April 2, 2025, at 1:00 p.m., OhioHealth Hardin Memorial Hospital and Lifeline of Ohio will host a flag raising ceremony outside the hospital at 921 E Franklin Street, Kenton to celebrate and honor the lives impacted by organ and tissue donation. A reception will be held in the McCullough Conference Room following the ceremony.
National Donate Life Month (NDLM) is a time to honor those generous donors who have saved and healed lives through the gift of donation. It’s also a time to raise awareness for organ, eye and tissue donation and encourage people to register their donation decision.

A case of measles has been identified in an unvaccinated Allen County resident under the age of 18. Contacts of the individual have been notified by public health professionals with Allen County Public Health and other health departments in the area to assess their measles vaccination status, and to provide information regarding signs and symptoms of measles and appropriate quarantine measures.
Measles is very contagious. Children infected with measles can spread it to others, even before they have symptoms. The measles virus can live for up to two hours in the air after an infected person leaves the room. Nine out of 10 unvaccinated children who are exposed to measles will become infected. Symptoms may not occur for up to 21 days after exposure to an individual who has measles.
