NJ Sharing Network
About NJ Sharing Network:
NJ Sharing Network is a non-profit, federally designated organ procurement organization responsible for the recovery of organs and tissue for the nearly 5,000 New Jersey residents currently awaiting transplantation, and is part of the national recovery system, which is in place for the more than 122,000 people on waiting lists. Our Foundation raises funds in order to support donor families, conduct research and educate about organ and tissue donation and transplantation.
An integral part of NJ Sharing Network's mission is to provide care during and after a donor family's experience. Our organization is looking for ambassadors to knit or crochet beautiful shawls for families of organ and tissue donors. Through the Wrapped in Love program, donor families are honored with handmade shawls that are tangible expressions of comfort and compassion. In joining this program, volunteers are supporting and honoring families whose loved one generously gave the gift of life.
To learn more about or to participate in Wrapped in Love, contact Jillian Padilla at (908) 516-5687 or JPadilla@njsharingnetwork.org.
