Educators in Oregon or SW Washington can request free presentations about donation and transplantation, presented by Donate Life Northwest or Cascade Life Alliance staff or highly-trained volunteers. Presentations are subject to the availability of speakers.

We have student presentation materials available in English and Spanish.

A parent/family/guardian letter from DLNW is available here if you'd like to send it home prior to your presentation date.
