2022 Crystal Vision Award

We are excited to announce the 2022 Crystal Vision Awards award recipients. Since 2007, LEBW has honored advocates of donation who have shown commitment and dedication to raising awareness and educating communities on the importance of organ, eye, and tissue donation.

LEBW honored 16 recipients from various categories this year – surgeons, hospitals, medical examiners, funeral homes, and community partners. The 2022 Crystal Vision Award recipients continue to demonstrate a commitment and passion by sharing the mission of healing lives through the gift of transplantation and the support of their community.
