Our Work
The Living Legacy Foundation of Maryland is a non-profit health service organization who saves and enhances lives through organ, eye, and tissue donation.
As the organ procurement organization for Maryland, we facilitate donation and transplantation in area hospitals, provide donor family support, and educate hospitals and the general public about the life-saving power of donation.
We are passionate about our mission of saving and enhancing lives while honoring the generosity of our donors.
