Donor Network West

Mission

Donor Network West is the federally designated organ procurement organization serving Northern California and Nevada. The service area includes nearly 14 million people across 100,000 square miles. Approximately 110,000 wait for lifesaving organ transplants in the U.S. including almost 10,000 in the Donor Network West service area. Donor Network West saves and heals lives through organ and tissue donation for transplantation and research. We facilitate the recovery and placement of organs and tissues such as hearts, lungs, livers, kidneys, pancreas, small bowel, skin, heart valves, corneas and musculoskeletal tissues. We work in close partnership with families, 175 hospitals including 5 local transplant centers, 44 coroner/medical examiners and 500+ funeral homes to connect donors to recipients. We respect the donor families we serve with compassionate care, and inspire our communities to donate life.
