"Advocates for Life" Volunteer Program: 

At Donor Alliance, our primary objective is to save lives through organ and tissue donation and volunteers are a vital component in fulfilling this mission.

Our Vision: "Advocates for Life" encompasses donor family members, transplant recipients, transplant candidates and others who have been touched by donation or transplantation, in order to advocate action towards registering organ and tissue donors throughout Colorado and Wyoming.   

We rely heavily on volunteer participation to make our programs possible. From grassroots advocacy to education, training and fundraising events. We are grateful for each and every volunteer, their generous donation of time and talent, and their dedication to being "Advocates for Life"!

Ways to Volunteer: 

"Tell Your Story" - Speaker's Bureau

Each year, we train speakers to inspire the public to register as organ and tissue donors. Our speaker's bureau is mainly comprised of donor family members, transplant recipients and transplant candidates. These volunteers speak to various groups at numerous public forums.

If you are interested in volunteering for speaking engagements, the first step is to attend the "Tell Your Story" volunteer training. Additionally, we recommend that Advocates continue their training by participating in the annual Transplant Speakers International program.

 

Donor Designation Stations

Volunteers are needed to provide the public with information regarding organ donation, dispel common myths and misconceptions and encourage new registrations throughout Colorado and Wyoming. At these events, the main goal of our volunteers is to inspire the community to join the Donate Life Colorado and Donate Life Wyoming donor registries (www.DonateLifeColorado.org or www.DonateLifeWyoming.org).

If you are interested in this volunteer outlet, the first step is to attend the "Managing a Donor Designation Station" volunteer training.

 

"Behind the Scenes" - Administrative Assistance

For those who prefer behind the scenes work, we have many different projects that can be accomplished at our office during the business day.

If you are interested in volunteering for administrative opportunities, the first step is to attend the "Becoming an Advocate 101" orientation.
