Then, enter that photo into the contest on the Donate Life America Facebook page for a chance to win a $100 Amazon Gift Card! Your fun photos can be submitted into one of the following categories: kids & teens, adults & families, home & garden, pets or food & art. See the 2019 winner for some inspiration.

We also encourage you to share the video on your own Facebook page with one fact you learned about organ, eye and tissue donation!

3.) #ShowYourHeart with an Act of Kindness:

Last but not least, something that can be done any day this April, you can #ShowYourHeart with an act of kindness in honor of organ, eye and tissue donation. Now more than ever, the world and our community needs kindness. NDLM-sticker-2020Simply perform an act of kindness, like; sending a “thinking of you note” to someone who lives alone, dropping off groceries to your elderly neighbors, or signing up to be an organ eye and tissue donor. And don’t forget to remind those you are helping that organ, eye and tissue donation is the ultimate act of kindness!

Then, share your act of kindness on your Facebook page with the hashtag #ShowYourHeart and tag us! Make sure you make your post is public so we can see it. Once that’s done, we’ll give you a code for a FREE coffee to say thank you!
