April is National Donate Life Month, a time to celebrate the gift of life made possible by the generosity of organ, tissue and eye donor heroes. While we are unable to gather in person this year due to the spread of COVID-19, we invite you to join us this month to help save lives and honor donor heroes, donor families, caregivers and the 113,000 people waiting for a second chance at life.

This rock painting group is to honor organ, tissue and eye donors, donor families and registered donors across Indiana. We hope that these rocks placed in your community will bring up conversations about donation throughout Indiana!
Did you know that 99% of registered donors register at the BMV? The BMV team documents your decision to be a donor. Today, there are 3.7 million people in Indiana registered to be donors - thanks in large part to the dedicated work of the BMV staff.
