Provided by OhioHealth

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.
