Year-End Review: Our impact in 2024

Wednesday, 5 February, 2025

It’s time for a Year-End Review; we are so proud to announce, giving people like you and your loved ones who said “yes” to organ & tissue donation our impact last year. It may have been on a driver’s license or by family in the hospital after an unexpected loss. In any case, these gifts do immeasurable good. Our numbers from another impactful year for us here at MidSouth Transplant Foundation. Thank you to everyone for such a FANTASTIC year! We’re believing that we can continue to GIVE HOPE to the many families who will be faced with loss and tragedy and GIVE LIFE to the those waiting and praying for their miracle.

MST wants to recognize and thank its key partner groups, including MSTF staff; MST ambassadors; donor families; physicians; nurses; other patient care personnel; donor hospital personnel; transplant center employees; department of motor vehicles, county clerk and highway patrol office employees; medical examiners; coroners; and funeral home staff.

MSTF is able to achieve its mission through your continued support, collaboration and feedback.

‘Wall of Recipients’ brings inspiration to Mid-South Transplant Foundation

Monday, 4 March, 2024

Mid-South Transplant Foundation celebrating the miracle of donation with its new ‘Wall of Recipients.’
 
The foundation said there are more than 100,000 people around the country in need of a life-saving transplant, and 4,000 live in the Mid-South.
 
On the wall are pictures of recipients who know first-hand how donations have changed their lives. Alex Ginsburg photographed the recipients for the wall, which the staff said serves as an inspiration for the work they do.
 
“We’re proud of our work saving and enhancing lives through organ and tissue donation and transplantation in the counties we serve in Tennessee, Arkansas, and Mississippi. We hope more people will register as organ and tissue donors so more lives can be saved,” said Kim Van Frank, Executive Director of the Mid-South Transplant Foundation.
 
The ‘Wall of Recipients’ is in the lobby at the foundation’s office on Centerview Parkway in Cordova.
