LifeSource Golf Classic
Golf Tournament for Upper Midwest Organ Procurement Organization / LifeSourceSep 13, 2023 from 10:00 AM to 6:30 PM
In it's 28th year, the LifeSource Golf Classic raises funds to increase awareness of the importance and the impact of organ, eye, and tissue donation across our service area (Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and western Wisconsin). Our goal is to inspire more people to register as organ donors on their driver's license or through the national registry. This will help to save more lives.
This tournament was inspired by the experience of one donor family, who's loved one died waiting for a heart transplant. At the time of her death, she was able to be a tissue and eye donor for someone else. The family was committed to increasing awareness of donation and the number of people who make the decision to register as an organ donor. These same family members continue to be a part of the planning for this tournament yet today.
Participants include other donor family members, transplant recipients, and vendors who partner with LifeSource in this work - all with a shared connection to donation and transplantation.
Proceeds from this tournament help to educate the community and healthcare providers in our service area about their role in the donation process. It also provides grief resources and support for donor families - at the time donation takes place and for as long as the family chooses to be involved with LifeSource.
