Tattoos are a lasting and creative way to express love and creativity for the people and ideas that matter in life. We’ve seen a lot of meaningful ink from members of the donation and transplant community over the years.

Nearly 50 organ recipients, donor family members and Gift of Life Michigan employees past and present offered submissions.
Here is a sample of the tattoos they sent us.
