Donor Family–Recipient Communications

Many families find comfort in connecting with recipients of their loved one’s gifts. Lifebanc facilitates confidential, anonymous communication when both sides are open to it.

• Organ donor and recipient families may exchange letters; contact Bereavement Services for guidance.
• Tissue/cornea donor families can call 216.820.4805 for correspondence options and status updates.
• There is no time limit for initiating contact.
• We ask both families to respect privacy; unsolicited searches via social media may not be welcome.
