MONROE — Monroe Clinic will hold a “Donate for Life” Ceremony at 10 a.m. on April 1 in the Main Lobby of the Hospital Building.

Monroe Clinic has a long history of supporting organ, tissue and eye donation. By supporting donors and their families our work makes the gift of life possible for the nearly 114,000 people who currently await a life-saving organ transplant and thousands more whose lives will be dramatically improved through tissue and eye donation.

At exactly 10:08 a.m. Monroe Clinic will join the Donate Life Wisconsin and dozens of other hospitals and organizations in a state-wide moment of silence. This event honors donors, and their families while promoting the mission to raise awareness of the need for organ donors, organ, tissue and eye donation and the importance of registering your donation decision on the Wisconsin donor registry through

DonateLifeWisconsin.org.

The event is open to the public. Immediately after the opening remarks and moment of silence, individuals will be welcomed and encouraged to share personal stories of how organ donation has impacted their life and the lives of loved ones.
