Spencer Calip
Eye Donor
/March 10, 2024
My daughter Spencer was a mother, daughter, sister and US Marine. She believed in leaving the earth a bit better than we found it. She was an advocate for organ and tissue donation and is the reason I became a donor as well. Knowing she was able to help others helps us with our grief.
Saying thank you
Many donor families find that corresponding with the transplant recipient or recipients can be a powerful experience. Donor families can take comfort in sharing stories and sending well wishes to those who live on because of their loved one.
Should you choose to connect, we're here to help. Letters and cards can be a tremendous gift to both the donor families and recipients. To protect everyone, we provide guidelines for communication. Names remain confidential unless both parties agree to share those with one another, and we provide a correspondence address. We are happy to share sample letters to help you get started.
