Donate Life Award

The Donate Life Award recognizes outstanding hospital accomplishments in organ and tissue donation. Two awards are presented annually. One is awarded to a hospital in the Mid-America Transplant Services region, which encompasses hospitals throughout eastern and southern Missouri. One award is given to a hospital in the Midwest Transplant Network region, which encompasses hospitals throughout western Missouri. MST and MTN nominate hospitals for this award, and the nominations are conferred by MHA.
