Sierra Donor Services New Mexico Celebrates Pride in Every Gift

Sierra Donor Services New Mexico (SDS NM) is honored to celebrate Pride Month with our lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, plus (LGBTQ+) community who have been touched by organ, eye and tissue donation and transplantation!

Every inspiring story reminds us that anyone can give or receive the gift of life regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

While outdated restrictions may prevent some LGBTQ+ individuals from donating blood, organ donation is an avenue open to all! The capacity to love and express yourself doesn’t disqualify you from saving lives. Sign up as an organ, eye and tissue donor, knowing that organs are matched based on medical compatibility and factors including blood type, body size, and geographical location.

Thanks to the HIV Organ Policy Equity (HOPE) Act, even those living with HIV can become donors and save the lives of many people. Register today and offer hope to the 100,000 people awaiting a life-saving transplant. You can save up to eight lives one day through organ donation and improve the lives of 75 or more people through tissue donation.

Celebrate Pride Month by signing up to save lives today!
