As we approach the end of the year, many of us reflect on the blessings we’ve received and look for meaningful ways to give back. This season, consider making a financial gift to the Rocky Mountain Lions Eye Bank (RMLEB), where a financial contribution can help restore sight and change lives.
Your gift brings hope to those in need - Each year, countless individuals await a cornea transplant to restore their sight. By making a financial contribution, you’re helping to fund the vital work of RMLEB - to procure, qualify, and provide donated eye tissue for transplant and research.
It is the gift that keeps on giving - While registering as an eye, organ and tissue donor is a powerful way to give the gift of sight to those in need, a financial contribution amplifies that impact. Your support helps ensure that we have the resources to increase awareness, fulfill the wishes of eye donors and their families, and provide tissue to surgeons for sight-restoring transplants.
It is a tax-deductible opportunity - Your contribution to RMLEB is fully tax-deductible, offering a way to give back to the community while also benefiting you financially as the year comes to an end.
You can honor a loved one – Giving in memory of a loved one is a meaningful way to honor their eye donation legacy. Your contribution can be a tribute to someone who believed in the importance of restoring sight and could inspire others to make a similar impact.
You can strengthen the future of sight – Every contribution, no matter the size, helps improve the future of eye health. With your support, we can continue to advance research, enhance public outreach, and ensure that more people can see the world clearly again.
There are additional ways you can have an impact. Remember to register your donation decision by saying yes to eye, organ, and tissue donation when you get your driver license or state ID. Then tell your loved ones about your donation decision. If you can, this season, give a gift that truly transforms lives. Your financial generosity could provide the gift of sight.
