Donor Quilt

View the Quilt

Midwest Transplant Network’s (MTN) Donor Memorial Quilt is dedicated to the memory of all those who have given gifts of life through organ, tissue or eye donation. Since its beginning in the year 2000, hundreds families have chosen to honor their loved one by creating a quilt square in his/her memory.

This beautiful tribute to MTN’s life-saving donors travels to events throughout Kansas and western Missouri to raise awareness about organ and tissue donation while honoring those individuals who have given gifts of life.

Many families choose to adorn their loved one’s quilt square with special details such as a photograph, poem, quote or symbol of the donor’s life. Some are made from sentimental materials such as a baby blanket, team jersey or favorite piece of clothing, and all are made with love.

MTN’s Donor Memorial Quilt is a work in progress. There is no deadline, and it is never finished, as we know there will always be other families who face the death of a loved one and make the decision to donate. This allows every family, past, present or future, to honor and remember their loved one by participating in this special project.
