  • Keeping the Faith: Engaging Faith-Based Communities about Ocular Donation

     Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Includes a Live Web Event on 08/04/2021 at 2:00 PM (EDT)

    The speakers will provide specific examples of resources, programs, and initiatives that have been developed at their organizations for engaging with faith leaders at local hospitals and in the local community, and will discuss how to effectively communicate about donation during National Donor Sabbath in November.

    All major religions support eye, tissue and organ donation, and engaging with leaders in faith-based communities can be an effective tool for promoting donation. With education and resources, hospital chaplains and religious leaders can become important champions for donation.  National Donor Sabbath, celebrated in November during National Eye Donation Month, is a great opportunity to connect with faith-based communities but this discussion can take place all year long.

    This educational session will highlight ways to engage faith leaders and will feature:

    • Remonia Chapman discussing Gift of Life Michigan’s video, “A Matter of Faith.”
    • Joy Fragola sharing Southern Eye Bank’s collaboration with local organizations to provide educational trainings for hospital chaplains and church groups.
    • Jeannie Purdy speaking about Miracles in Sight’s work with local faith-based communities and how to establish and maintain these relationships.
    • Pastor Tom Jones discussing his role in promoting donation and how he works with the eye bank to encourage his community to support ocular donation.

    The speakers will provide specific examples of resources, programs, and initiatives that have been developed at their organizations for engaging with faith leaders at local hospitals and in the local community, and will discuss how to effectively communicate about donation during National Donor Sabbath in November.
