Impact
Everything we do at HonorBridge is about saving and healing as many lives as possible, here at home and across the country. We are committed to being a part of our community and to making a difference.
Our Service Area
HonorBridge is a federally designated agency serving 7.5 million people, including 78 counties in North Carolina & Virginia
Our service area includes over 100 hospitals and four transplant centers that perform heart, lung, liver, kidney, pancreas, and intestine transplants. But, our impact extends far beyond these borders. We work with the United Network of Organ Sharing (UNOS), tissue processors, and innovators across the country to save and heal as many lives as possible.
Facts & Figures
Our impact in organ & tissue donation for 2021
293 heart valves recovered
290 heroes donated organs
1295 heroes donated tissue
HonorBridge celebrated a record year of impact last year
And we’re on track to break those records this year! Our most important priority is delivering the gifts of organ, eye, and tissue donations to those waiting for a transformative surgery or procedure. But the numbers only tell part of the story. When we work with our partners to recover the gifts of life, share reliable information about donation, and support the families of our heroes, the ripples of our collective work extend beyond the numbers and touch lives across the country.
