Transplant Team Creates a Garden of Pinwheels to Honor Those Who Have Donated Life

Team members from the UVA Health Charles O. Strickler Transplant Center and LifeNet Health recently came together to install the 2nd Annual Pinwheel Garden in front of the West Complex for Donate Life Month.

"We hope you find our garden as a place to remember and honor those who have given the gift of life and enhanced the lives of others through organ, eye, and tissue donation," says Amy Schmidt-Morris, Senior Adviser, Special Projects. "We also hope you will find gratitude in our garden for the countless number of nurses, social workers, physicians, financial coordinators, access associates, surgeons, pharmacists, and nutrition, speech, occupational and physical therapists, who make transplantation possible."

Register to be an organ, eye, and tissue donor with Donate Life Virginia.

The garden will be on display through April 30.
