🦸♂️ “Yeah, Dad’s a superhero.” Chad was known across the country as a truck driver who could make friends with anyone. But his greatest legacy came not from the miles he drove—but from the lives he touched through tissue donation. After a tragic accident, Chad’s wife, Megan, made the courageous decision to honor his wishes as a registered donor. Though he couldn’t donate his organs, his tissue helped more than 300 people. 💬 “I was so overwhelmed knowing that I made the right call and he did something fantastic,” Megan says. His gift has inspired a ripple effect—friends and family have joined the donor registry, motivated by the good they saw come from Chad’s decision. Megan now shares his story with pride, especially with their children. “It was so rewarding seeing their faces when I explained it. They said, ‘Yeah, Dad’s a superhero.’” 🔗 Read Chad’s full story: https://lnkd.in/gTm9nj_B #TissueDonation #OrganDonation #GiftOfLife #HealthcareImpact #Legacy #DonateLife #Versiti #LinkedInForGood #RealStoriesRealImpact #SuperheroDad

More than six years ago, John Norman rolled up his sleeve at a workplace blood drive—thinking it was just a simple act of giving back. Then he learned he was a perfect match for platelet donation. Not long after, he discovered a coworker and friend had survived childhood leukemia thanks to donors like him. That moment gave his donations a face—and a purpose. ❤️ Since then, John has donated platelets 160 times and counting. With each visit, he dedicates his donation to someone impacted by blood disorders, sharing their stories to inspire others. We’re proud to share John’s story—a reminder that one person can spark change, hope, and healing. 🎥 Watch his journey and learn how you can make an impact too. 🩸 Schedule your donation today: https://lnkd.in/ghF7EzWy #LeadershipInAction #Versiti #BloodDonation #PeopleNeedPeople #PurposeDriven #PlateletDonor #GiveHope #LinkedInForGood

💡 “If you would accept it, you should give it.” Amy Barwick was just 15 when she underwent major surgery to correct a congenital spinal deformity. Her journey to healing included a cadaver bone transplant and blood and plasma transfusions—some of which she had donated herself in advance of the procedure. Thanks to these life-saving gifts, Amy regained her mobility and found her purpose. Today, she’s a physical therapist, passionate about helping others heal—and an outspoken advocate for organ and tissue donation. She continued her journey of giving back by donating her placenta after the birth of her second child, helping burn victims and others in need. 💬 “I’m not saving anyone’s life, but I’m trying to make it better. I understand how important that is.” Amy’s story is a powerful reminder of the ripple effect one act of generosity can create. 🔗 Read her full story: https://lnkd.in/gndYnxQh #OrganDonation #TissueDonation #HealthcareHeroes #PatientStory #LinkedInForGood #Versiti #DonateLife #PhysicalTherapy #GiftOfLife #InspiringStories
