Training
At Donor Alliance, our volunteers are a vital component in fulfilling our mission to save lives through organ and tissue donation. Our “Advocates for Life” volunteer program strives to offer numerous introductory training classes, specialized messaging and speech writer’s workshops, in addition to presentations from our expert staff on the processes of organ and tissue donation. We aim to provide a multitude of training and educational opportunities throughout the year to equip our volunteers with the greatest skills and knowledge base in order to best advocate action towards registering organ and tissue donors throughout Colorado and Wyoming
