Join LifeLink — Join a Life Saving Team!
About LifeLink
More than four decades ago, a visionary group of innovators, led by renowned nephrologist Dr. Dana Shires, made a life-changing commitment—to save lives through organ and tissue donation. From that bold beginning, LifeLink Foundation was established – founded with heart, purpose, and a mission that still guides us today.
What started as a nonprofit with big dreams has grown into a vision-driven organization of more than 700 dedicated professionals across west-central Florida, Georgia, parts of South Carolina, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands.
At LifeLink, we are united by our mission: To honor donors and save lives through organ and tissue donation.
Our vision remains clear: To maximize the gift of life while giving hope to donor families and transplant patients.
We are grounded in the values that shape our work and culture—Compassion. Excellence. Legacy. People. Quality.
If you’re inspired by purpose, driven by impact, and ready to help save and heal lives, LifeLink is the place for you.
