A holiday message from our President and CEO

Dear Friends and Partners,

William Arthur Ward, a popular American writer who infused many inspirational messages into his poems and articles, once said, “Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.” His words ring true, especially during this holiday season and as we get set to enter 2022 with a renewed energy after a challenging time.

Our NJ Sharing Network family is forever grateful to the generous donors and their families who gave the gift of life. We celebrate and honor donor heroes for their selfless decision to save and enhance the lives of countless others who now have more holidays, birthdays and special moments to share with their loved ones.

I also want to express my personal appreciation for our team members, healthcare partners and volunteers who power our efforts each and every day. You give hope to the nearly 4,000 people in the Garden State who are waiting for a life-saving transplant. In recent months, we have been grateful to come together and safely reconnect in person, including our activities to raise awareness in our faith-based communities during National Donor Sabbath.

We now move ahead - together - with the hope of even-brighter days to come! Let’s never lose sight of the many blessings we’ve been given, and remember that even the simplest act of kindness can make a world of difference to those around us.

I wish you a joyful holiday season and a happy and healthy new year!

Domingo Nacional de los Donantes

In November, we celebrated National Donor Sabbath with activities focused on educating faith-based communities about the critical need for organ and tissue donation, and the vital role faith plays in making the decision to register as a donor. Most major religions in the United States support donation as an unselfish act of charity. Several local faith leaders and those active in their faith community shared inspirational stories and unique perspectives during Faith and the Miracle of Organ and Tissue Donation, an entertaining, informative event streamed live on NJ Sharing Network’s Facebook or YouTube channels.

Toda comunidad necesita héroes

La divulgación y la educación comunitarias siempre desempeñan un papel fundamental en la misión de NJ Sharing Network de salvar vidas. En los últimos meses, los miembros del equipo, los defensores, los voluntarios y los colaboradores se han mostrado encantados de poder volver a reunirse en persona de forma segura. Los hospitales colaboradores, los colegios, los lugares de culto y las organizaciones vecinales también han reanudado numerosos eventos y actividades de sensibilización. Las iniciativas de divulgación siguen prosperando en Internet y en los medios de comunicación locales gracias a quienes comparten sus inspiradoras historias y mensajes.

La campaña de comunicación «Every Community Needs Heroes» (Todas las comunidades necesitan héroes) de NJ Sharing Network está dando un gran impulso a las iniciativas de divulgación con un mensaje inspirador que transmite la importancia de registrarse como donante de órganos y tejidos. La campaña incluye una variedad de fotografías en las que aparecen donantes heroicos de todas las edades, razas y etnias, unidos por un objetivo común: ayudar a los demás. Las plantillas digitales e impresas pueden utilizarse «tal cual» o personalizarse para llegar de forma eficaz a todos los públicos.
