EVALUATE how our organization addresses racial inequalities and biases, both internally and externally, and how we can lead organ and tissue donation toward an equitable future.
HONOR the Latino and African American lives in our communities, whose legacies live on through donation and whose lives were saved by the selfless decisions of others.
