Ambassadors of Hope extend our reach into the community by participating in speaking engagements, registry and awareness drives, community projects as well as broadcast, print and social media projects.

-
Hospitals

Health Organizations

Academic organizations

Civic and community-based groups

What We Do
LifeGift offers hope to thousands of people in Texas and beyond who need lifesaving organ transplants, and to countless others who need lifesaving tissue transplants.
As the designated organ procurement organization (OPO) for North, Southeast and West Texas, we partner with more than 200 hospitals across 109 counties.
Established in 1987 as Gulf Coast Independent Organ Procurement Organization, LifeGift is approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and accredited by the Association of Organ Procurement Organizations (AOPO) and the American Association of Tissue Banks (AATB).
