Registration is now open for the 2026 Celebration of Life Picnic!Join us for the annual Celebration of Life Picnic. All transplant recipients, living donors, donor families and supporters of the Donate Life Community are invited!
Donor Family/Recipient Meetings
If you are a donor family interested in meeting your loved one’s recipient(s) at the picnic, or a recipient interested in meeting your donor family, please contact Legacy of Hope Aftercare at [email protected] by April 3rd. We cannot accommodate day of requests or guarantee meetings.
The process of donor family/recipient meetings starts with exchanging letters. There is guidance on Legacy of Hope’s website for writing to recipients and writing to donor families. After letters have been exchanged, both parties must sign a release of information form before meeting.
Picnic invitations are sent to recipients from our local transplant hospitals (UAB Hospital, Children’s of Alabama and the VA Birmingham) and Alabama donor families. If the recipient was transplanted outside of Alabama they will not receive an invitation and we encourage you to write a letter expressing an interest in meeting.
If you are not able to meet your recipient or donor family, you may meet other donor families/recipients which may also provide healing.
Legacy of Hope cannot facilitate meetings between living donors and their recipients.
